Play the game!

Yesterday I watched this wtf podcast with Ray Dalio (Do watch it!). It wasn’t about his mantra on picking stocks or becoming a smarter investor. It was more like quiet life advice.

Find what pulls you. Play the game. Talk to/spend time with people who are already in the game. That’s all.

And somehow, this applies to almost everything in our lifes. Be it career, investing, learning, even hobbies. (Disclaimer: Not talking about marriage, dating, or murder. The consequences there are slightly heavier and nasty. Let’s keep this advice in the safe experimentation zone.)

Now I feel a small pull to revisit the game theory or micro economics. Not out of pressure. Maybe I am spending lot of time in farming and plant protection studies rather than the core.

Enter the game, observe honestly both the rulers and players, and decide whether it works for you or not.

Because only when you play the game, you know whether you like the game. Everything else is just a drag.

Cheers!
