Why this book is so important?

It is my experience that there are certain qualities that define virtually all human behavior. One of these qualities is to strategize ways to maximize our untapped potential and do so at the lowest possible physical, emotional and economic cost especially when interacting with others people.  To a young millennial this is nothing more than a “lifehack”.  To me it is more accurately described as a lifehack game because game thinking is the most effective, efficient and productive way to achieve this goal. Looking for ashort-cut is one thing; doing this by mimicking the thought and behavior patterns we exhibit when playing games is something else altogether.

As I have stated earlier one way to view these human thought and behavior patterns is as a game.  In such a game the more one who prospers at the lowest possible cost to themselves and others wins. Prospering does not need to be defined in financial or material terms. It can relate to emotional well-being, clarity of thought, service to others and many other ways.

Much of life is driven by sets of ideas and numbers that describe the past, present, or future states of things, particularly strategic interactions between two or more individuals or groups (players) in situations containing set rules and outcomes. Game theory is the process of observing these interactions and modeling them so that one may make effective decisions. Applied Game Thinking is a simplification of these ideas.

In life we often model or copy what we have seen or experienced before.  This process is often known as “modeling” among game thinkers.    Modeling life strategies in this way it is not about solving problems as much as it is about applications and solutions.

In an ideal world Game theory and game thinking would be a waste of time. The extraordinary person would simply do what Lao Tzu, the great Chinese–Taoist Sage did. Once he realized that most people were just clueless, and would never get “It”, he left town, went to a mountain community with a gatekeeper and hung out with all the other wise men and woman, visionaries and sages. There they could all live their lives motivated by love, emotional balance, clarity of thought, compassion and personal contentment. Visionary thinkers of this type have no interest in living a “zero sum life” motivated by anger, greed, lust, vanity, attachment and ego. The type of that seems to motivate many.

Sadly we do not live in an ideal world. We have to deal with challenges, obstacles and constraints, many caused by other people, many of them dysfunctional to the max. In addition we must confront our own inner demons. All this leads to problems that might have been avoided. Whether it is genetics that defines the games we play or how we play them, play them we must – or rather lifehack them we must!

 

This book will teach you to think, speak, and act with the greatest of efficiency, effectiveness and productivity. You will be an expert lifehacker!

Here is a short section from my book, “Spiritual, Not Religious”

“The Meaning of Life

I have often heard it said that one must have a meaning to one’s life in order to be happy.  I have thought of this often over the years and have come to believe, though not conclusively, that it is a personal choice for each of us to give something significant meaning, and yet, it is what you give meaning to that is essential to your personal sense of self.   On the Wisdom Path there is often a natural quest for spirituality, and in this quest you will often given meaning to your cultural, ethnic, and religious roots in ways that you have not even thought of before, or possibly may have historically rejected outright if you had. 

Transcending obstacles defines much of what goes on in your life.  Think about it. You function day to day pretty much automatically, and then suddenly you experience an obstacle. This obstacle will probably be associated with some physical or psychological discomfort.  It might be a red light that causes you to hit the brakes on your car.  It might be walking up the steps of a non-functioning escalator or a long line at the post office.  When things, events, or people limit your freedom, these “obstacles” take on meaning.  We are also often drawn to things of great beauty, sensuality, and elegance.  These things also have meaning.   So as you can see, to notice something in your life is to give that thing meaning.  If it had no meaning, would you even notice it?

What does it mean for something to have meaning?  Does the ‘meaning’ have to have a particular quality or quantity to it?  Does it need to be a profound meaning or will any sense of meaning do?  How would you even know if something had more than a superficial meaning?  What makes something significant?  What is the link between a life of meaning and significance?  If something has meaning to you, whether good or bad, does it have ‘meaning’ because it reinforces your sense of being and nothing more than that? These are important questions for you to ask on the Wisdom Path.

Many great thinkers have proposed that meaning is based on your perception and shifts in your perception. Something might have meaning now that might not have had any meaning just a few moments ago. Is meaning anything more than what something means to you?  This concept can have great implications for how you think, make choices in daily life, and even how you use language and communicate with others in the process of consciously creating your life experience – your new personal reality.

It appears; concerning the meaning of meaning; that we all have an idea, a thought, a passion, or an interest – some “content.” But what is lacking is a place through which to express this “content”.  Look at it this way. At times you may have tea (content), but no cup (form) to pour it in. In such a case the cup will have a great meaning for you in a way that it would not if there was no tea. On the other hand sometimes you have a cup (form) but no tea (content) to pour it into. This is how it is with an idea, a thought, a passion, interest, or some experience. Like tea it will have a great meaning for you in a way that it would not if there was no empty cup, or empty form available to be filled.

The meaning in your life can be compared to sand blowing through your fingers. It is there but not really. In the end there is meaning because you have created it or accepted it when it was presented to you. This can apply to religious faith, rituals, ceremonies, and many other ideas, and forms.

This is not to diminish what has meaning for you. It is simply to emphasize that it is through meaning, that all of us create hope and possibility for joy and celebration in life and living.”
