Life Is Nothing Short of a Game
I have always been of a sporty kind since my childhood. I loved playing both indoor and outdoor games. I was very much drawn to numerous indoor board games as compared to outdoor ones since choices were both limited and costly to play full-fledged outdoor games. I observed that there was an uncanny predictability to all these games. Pick any indoor or outdoor game of your choice, Whichever team or a person who starts on a winning note had higher chances of winning the game eventually . Please do not get me wrong, I am not making fun of anybodys situation, and nor I am discouraging you. All I am trying to tell you is that An early bird gets the prize or simply put If you start early you have already won half the race be it in life or the game . Let me share a few examples from my own experience. Since my childhood, I loved playing Chess, Carom board, Monopoly / Business, and other Board games and at the same time I was equally drawn to outdoor games as well . While each of these games is different from the others, yet they all have an underlying predictable pattern of winning and losing, which I am explaining as a layman for your better understanding. Chess I was introduced to the game by my classmate early in my childhood when I was in 3rd Standard. I would meet him in the evenings after school in the Colony Park to play. Whenever I visited his house he would lay the Chessboard for us to play, I found it hard to understand the game initially. After having understood the rules and nuances of the game, I picked it up in no time and went on to play much better than him. My winning strategy at that age was quite simple, covering my major pieces like Queen, Rook, Knight and
Bishop and looking for opponents exposed venerable pieces and weak openings, taking material advantage by exchanging opponents’ major pieces and exploiting their open positions and simply keeping the material advantage intact right till the end where my opponent was left with no major and minor pieces to defend his King. Even now as an adult, I still apply the same strategy successfully to overcome most of my opponents. Carom board The Carom board was rather easy to grasp. My parents presented me with one almost at the same time when I was introduced to Chess. Although more of a skill game rather than a mind game, it required skill to spot clear pieces that can be hit with the Striker, to be captured in the hole ensuring no other undesired piece comes in its way. Here too, all opponents being equal in caliber and skill sets, the winner was almost decided by who captures or wins the first few carom pieces. Each time a piece is captured, the player is presented with another chance of a free strike. Simply put, one successful strike leads the player to a free strike, an open opportunity to make another successful attempt thereby increasing his/ her chances significantly to win the game. Monopoly / Business Monopoly / Business too is a peculiar game of strategy and chance. Initially, not knowing the rules thoroughly, I would lose miserably. Each player starts with a fixed amount, each player taking a turn by moving several spaces as per numbers on the dice thrown. As you move spaces, the game opens with opportunities to either invest on sites or earn when you land on particular spaces by way of profits in business/ lottery/ tax refunds/ dividends/ winning of contests, etc, simultaneously the game also exposes the player with losses like paying for unforeseen expenses by way of paying rental of sites owned by other players or by expenses incurred out of losses in business/ fees/ maintenance or simply losing a few turns etc.
The player who manages first to invest in three same-colored sites which doubled their rental income as a rule and earns a few such rentals early in the game as always is the likely winner in the end or at least will never be out of money/ game. Football Although outdoor sports, while playing with friends in the colony, here too the winning team was somewhat determined from the very start while dividing the players and even before hitting the ball by simply comparing who had more active dribblers in their team. As common sense, they invariably ended up having the football most of the time in the game, they also had more chances to strike the other team’s goalpost to convert into the goal and also by default were the better strikers and had better goal-scoring average than the other team and they even proved to be better defenders too. While the other team would simply be in a defensive mode all the time. Cricket I was never a good player of Cricket, yet I enjoyed thoroughly participating and played as a tail-ender who could neither bat nor ball well, all I did well was run to save some boundaries. Although I had little say or influence in the game but was pretty good at arriving at the outcome in advance by simply comparing which team comprised of more all-round players, who were not only good at batting or bowling but were good fielders as well. As an observation, such teams won more matches on average as they would always have better run rates while batting, scored more boundaries, and while fielding would effectively defend boundaries, and take wickets through catches, and tight fielding as well. No matter how many more games I may end up mentioning they all have an underlying pattern of winning and losing. The whole idea of elaborating my observation to all my readers is that Winning in the game or life requires a right strategy and whether you like it or not, there is an underlying pattern that governs our life based on our own repeated actions which are creating, either a winning or a losing pattern or a situation .
Welcome to Reality
All I want from you is to realize and understand the hard and blunt reality. I am not going to be soft on this. The society at large where we live is the playground that has its own set of rules what we call the law of the land just like in any other game we play. We as individuals are players and all of us are every day in and day out with our repeated legitimate actions accepted in the Society and that we deem fit, trying to figure out to achieve the most desirable stable configuration in life. It applies to all of us, all the time, every time, wherever we are, no matter how much we ignore or try to dismiss or avoid it. Our todays position or situation is a collective total of our repeated actions as well as our parents, and forefathers to an extent in the past. Some positions or situations are an outcome of the inheritance of actions of parents and forefathers over which we have little control. We at the same time are also blessed with an opportunity to influence and improve on all the faculties/priorities/aspects of life with our actions. Based on the above observation. There is a direct and implied message for all. a. That we are living in a ruthless society. It has its effects and bearing on all of us. b. Society at large is neither kind nor cruel. Simply put, it is cold and logical. c. We as individuals are required to make efforts through our legitimate actions in pursuit of our stability. d. There are no shortcuts. Each one of us individually has to work our way out of it. e. Society only acknowledges winners . f. Nobody, except you, has to make all the effort. You would at best, come across well-wishers only to guide you. g. No one is concerned about your success or failure, as others too are busy trying to figure out their success formulae.
