    Naval is a meta level thinker. It's hard to find someone on his level, but that's probably because he is a unique mix of someone whose a clever worldly operator, a scholar and philosopher.

    He forgot to mention. Every time you win those games. There’s no reward at the end. The reward was the actual game itself.

      How is it there's no reward? If I'm playing a 'house' game then having a 'house' (all paid) is a reward of that game. Am I missing here something?

      @@linusath JB is thinking of the more general mantra of "Life Is About The Journey, Not The Destination", but from reading and listening to a lot of Naval's work your interpretation is what he's meaning. He's not a monk and doesn't get pure pleasure out of chasing things, and there are things worth getting (like that house) that can make you happy after having, not just in the acquiring, which is honestly a more relatable and implementable view.

    The game is designed only to be played and never to be won. People get trapped thinking they can win the game. Understand that it is a game and you can play your own way, that’s playing it good.

    Interesting mindset, and extremely useful when applied correctly, but I think the way it’s phrased, “Win the game or don’t play it” paints the idea in sort of an arrogant light. Where does the “Win or don’t play” mindset allow space for learning? For growth? I’ll personalize the example I’ll give: I’m a amateur fighter. When I first started sparring, I would get my ass beat every time by this one guy. Everytime I would “play the game” of sparring with him, I would lose. By this mindset, at least the way it’s phrased, I should’ve given up playing the game by the third or fourth consecutive month of getting my ass beat. However, it was in “losing” the game hundreds of times that I developed the skill set to eventually “win” the game, and now when sparring with the same guy, I often get the better of him. I appreciate the explanation in the video and it certainly is a useful mindset, but to discount the opportunity for growth and learning when you “lose the game” seems a bit shallow.

      I guess there can be micro games within the games. In the case of sparring, there is a set of rules to know who wins/loses. But maybe trying to be the best in boxing (e.g.) can be an almost infinite game. In the money game at least, it is clear that it can be infinite -- You can play it your whole life.
