The Game of Life

The song I chose was “Life is like a dice game” by Nas. It was released in 1996. It was one of his songs on the “Nasty Nas Demo Tape 1991”. Nas is one my favorite rappers of all time. He has amazing lyrics and flow. All his songs has meaning or messages in them. But this one particularly really stood out to me because it had a really smooth beat to it. You can tell it was made in the 90’s because of how the beat and the rhythm of the song resembles a lot of songs that were made in that era.…

However, when it comes to video gaming it teaches you more than you can imagine, but of course how will you know when you are too busy having fun. Today I will be informing you how video games are a great form of…

main reason that I chose the Game of Life analogy to be the central theme of this book is because it is the best way to explain in words, the extraordinary situation that we find ourselves in. It also helps to illustrate what we are, where we are, and why we are here. But as I explained earlier, anything that can be put into words is not the truth. While words can guide you closer, they will never succeed in describing the truth directly. So to make the ‘Game of Life’ analogy more…

Much has been written on what it takes to win the game of life. A lifetime of experience says it's not as complicated as most people make it. Here are a few factors (less spoken about in success forums) that I consider are crucial to lead a successful life, take what you want: Reposition: Have you ever pondered what makes a few people more effective than others? Without a doubt, ability and experience are a part of the condition, yet there is a considerably more imperative segment – Reposition.…

TThe Game That Changed My Life Ever since I first started to walk, sports have been a major part of my life. When I walk on to the pitch I am transformed into another world where all else fades away except the game. Two years ago, when I was a sophomore in high school, the game changed my entire life forever. After many time-consuming and demanding practices my team finally earned a place in the conference tournament for the first time in decades. The game was days away, but I could already…

embarrassing soccer game of my life. We drove across our city to our rival high school's field. This was one of our biggest games of the entire season. Year after year, we always lost our winning streak to ECC. They were the catholic school in our area, and they always thought they were better than us in everything. This soccer game would be our school's chance to turn things around and challenge them. Before the game started our entire team stretched and warmed up for the game ahead of…

For three months in the spring, my life revolves around one thing, lacrosse. I spent the cold morning before class and the hot afternoons after, on the field, I always met the expectations for someone on the team. I ran until I could no longer run, I played in the drills, and I showed up to every game. However, I never played in the games, and that was because I only ever reached the expectations, never raising them. I remember at the end of my freshman year, my coach sat me and a group…

It was a normal day, I started my day of playing video games like usual. Little did I know I was going to receive the biggest consequence of my life. My friend asked me if I wanted to go hang out at the I said I would be able to make it, but I did not ask my parents yet I expected them to say yes but, I was in for a terrible surprise. I hung up the phone and went downstairs to ask my dad if I could go to the park. He said, “no! it is too dangerous out there”. I didn’t want to talk back; I knew…

had never been more exhausted in my life. I experienced a realization during one of the largest soccer games of my life. My team was facing a very respected team that had been the victors against us for the past six years. We had been taking pressure the entire game and at one point they were up by four goals. The game was as if they knocked my team down and stepped over us, again and again. Then, they scored a another goal. I knew there was little hope for the game to go in my favor. Right then…
