It's All a Game

From the moment we are born, others' expectations shape our behaviors, choices, and definitions of success. We build our personal and professional lives around those expectations, and at some point, many of us wonder if we are on the right path. We my want to make changes, but it's difficult and we don't know how to start.

In What Game Are You Playing?, author Robin Moriarty, PhD shares her view on what being "successful" really looks like, and those views will be a surprise to many. According to Robin, life is a game, and it is up to each individual to determine just what kind of game they want to play. The author guides you through a process that shows you how to assess your current state and outlines the steps you need to take in order to achieve your new game and own version of success. The book enables you to-

- Gain awareness of the way you want to live your life

- Reframe success on your own terms

- Map out what you will need to do to get there

Through a series of examples and exercises designed as a game, Robin helps you recognize-and then step away from-the expectations of others so you can define and pursue your own version of success in work and in life. Through this process of finding and designing their own games, you will no longer be a pawn in someone else's.
