Recommendation

Some people watch life from the sidelines rather than showing up to play. But beware! This passive approach is a clear pathway to regret, warns best-selling author Jennifer A. Garrett. When you fail to pursue your ambitions, you forgo your authentic purpose. Using sports metaphors and drawing inspiration from elite athletes, leaders and entrepreneurs, Garrett urges readers to learn to take control of their life stories and start “playing to win.” She adopts the role of a coach giving a pep talk: Take action to unleash your full potential, be disciplined and overcome self-limiting beliefs.

Summary

You only have one life, so make every second count by “playing to win” every day.

The saying, “Time flies when you’re having fun,” might ring true sometimes. Too often, however, people feel like their lives pass quickly, yet they haven’t fully enjoyed their time. Maybe they’re in survival mode, trying to stay in the “rat race,” or maybe they’re just too busy to do what they truly want. Whatever the cause, the outcome is the same whenever you choose to live your life passively instead of proactively: regret.

Pause and reflect on your past year: How much time did you spend embodying your life’s purpose? How much time did you waste on unproductive meetings, unnecessary activities and inefficient processes? Are you content with your career path? Are you truly happy in your personal life? Do you wish you had prioritized your dreams and what matters to you? Remember, you only have one life and are responsible for making it count.

To win the game of life, you must work toward a “future self” that gives you a sense of pride and fulfillment. Stop letting others dictate your narrative. Taking control...
