How To Actually Decide On Your Big Beautiful Dream By Naming Infinite Games

I am a huge believer in pursuing dreams for two big reasons. One, it prevents regret, which is such a powerful state of sadness. And, two it helps us live each day with a little more vitality. A little more pep in our step.

It doesn’t matter if it’s for work, for play, or anywhere in between. At any given moment in time, we can establish a big dream. And whenever I feel like giving up on mine, I remember these words from poet John Greenleaf Whittie.

“For all sad words of tongue and pen, the saddest are these, ‘It might have been.”

Play Infinite Games

In a future episode we will look at a more concrete, practical, step by step filter to decide if a goal qualifies as a big dream or not.

But for now I just want to share one of the key indicators.

A big dream should create an infinite game for you. I was trying to think of a good way to describe what I mean by this and I got the urge to see how A.I. would explain this.

I was quite blown away by the response when I said “​​describe to me the importance of playing infinite games when it comes to our well being.”
