Life game theory

IBM founder Thomas J. Watson said,  "Business is a game".  I say,  "Life is a game". See it as a game and you relaize being a winner or loser depends on how you make a move. You are the most prominent player and you compete with other people who are the other players. To win, you need to know the strategies of the play and you need to make a correct move at correct time. You also should be patient and calm because it is a long game; you make take a lot of years to beat your competitors. If you leave the game in the middle then you will again become a loser and your opponent will win the game. Make it a game, view the competition and know the strategies of the game. Play your move strategically. It can be an individual game in many cases and it can be a team game in many cases. It depends how you play. If you play selfish and want to win, it may not always be possible.  Many times, you have to play co-operatively and make a combined decision to attain more benefits. I remember somebody saying with regards to the Olympic games- " You wont get a gold medal for winning some, you get a gold medal for winning all ". It means to be the topmost, all your opponents should be below you.

In life, there are many events and you as a player have to play many games. Sometimes you may have to play more than one game at a time, and other times you can play a single game. To become a winner you again need a lot of passion, hard work and you should follow the spirit of the game. Every game you play in life has a value, or to say every action you take in life has some significance or some worth. You can assign some real and rational value to it. Our main objective to become a winner is to optimize this worth and make it maximum. However, by doing so we should never neglect all the other constraints that are in our life. We should always keep in mind some of our constraints like health, family, spirituality, morality, social value and other aspects which play a pivotal role in life. Sometimes, we play neglecting all these constraints. No doubt we may be able to achieve the maximum payoff but ultimately we can't be stable throughout the life. This leads us again to make a better move and keep into mind all the constraints. In a life competition, the one is the  best who is able to move forward keeping in mind all the constraints.

Choose your game properly in life. Realize the proper moves. Be a part of proper and stable coalition.  The core of the game where your solution should belong must be non-empty and stable; and you should be able to bargain for your pay off and if did not get proper one, you should be able to change the coalition.  Act and  take proper actions, life game is hard to play, difficult to win and a lot of constraints come into picture.  But also you have to play it. So get involved, play effectively and efficiently. If some attempts are not getting fruitful, realize the drawbacks, change the strategies, change the coalition, be dynamic and keep on playing. Realize life game is the hardest game and make it as fun as possible.
