The Game Within the Game: An Introduction
Manage episode 377049590 series 2302063
"While life is one big game, there are many games within the game that you have to play. Knowing what game you're playing makes all the difference."
Why do people play stupid games just to win stupid prizes? Why are we so enamored by the unimportant things? Because we're wired to chase pleasure and avoid pain.
In this episode, Rodney shares a profound metaphor from the game of Quidditch in Harry Potter to answer the above questions. The metaphor explains the levels that exist in the game of Life and how different people play. An episode about truth, self-awareness, and what it really means to win at life. At the end of the day, don't hate the player or the game. Just play. Featuring Deion Sanders, Simon Sinek, Shannon Sharpe, and Hassan Minhaj.
