Greetings Users and Programs!
This is Etari L1v1ngSacr1f1ce and today we are going to be talking about how our choice
of friends and our partner or significant other will greatly impact our gameplay in
life
When playing multiplayer games our choice of partner or partners will seriously effect
the out come of the game.
We will be covering a couple point in this lesson so lets get started with Number one.
If our team mates goals in the game are different from ours, like their main focus is getting
the highest score possible and your main focus is making sure the team as a whole wins or
gets all the objectives completed eventually this will cause a rift in the relationship.
We have to first figure out what our goals in life are or what game in life we are going
to focus on.
If our main priority in life or dream is to have a big family and we are dating someone
that has no desire to have children the relationship will have a hard time succeeding.
If we are very career focused and our choice of partner doesn't believe in what we are
doing than our partner might do little things that sabotage our efforts whether its consciously
or subconsciously.
We tend to commit to the people we date or spend the most time with so if we spend a
lot of time with someone that we don't share the same values and goals with we may end
up committing to an unhealthy relationship.
It's very hard to win TOGETHER if we aren't even playing the same game.
Number 2 If there is too big of a skill gap between
partners one may start to get frustrated at their partners lack of ability to handle things
that they are already competent at and feelings of envy, inadequacy and contempt may come
into play.
If staying fit and eating healthy is extremely important to someone it would be really hard
for them to date someone that never wants to work out and prefers eating fast food every
day.
They might start to feel like their less healthy partner doesn't care or get frustrated when
they feel like their partner can't keep up.
You may have heard the phrase "to be equally yoked" which is an old english way of saying
to be united, on the same path and lifting each other up.
The origin of being equally yoked comes from a "yoke" of oxen.
The two animals were tied together to pull a plow and if one ox was stronger than the
other the plow would go in circles because one was dragging behind.
This is why it is so important to work on ourselves before we choose a partner.
We have to figure out who we are and what we value in life first.
We have to continuously strive to be the best version of ourselves we can be.
If we aren't in a good place when seeking out a committed relationship we will be more
likely to attract other people that have similar mindsets.
When two mentally unhealthy people get together the resulting relationship will be very volatile
to be sure and next thing you know we are seeing that couple on an episode of Cops or
Jerry Springer.
Number 3 The same goes in our choices of friends.
Statistically speaking if we take our five closest friends and average out their yearly
income we will come very close to our yearly income.
We take on characteristics of who we associate with the most.
We tend to watch the same TV shows as our closest friends, read the same books, and
have a similar sense of humor for example.
Going forward I would recommend being very intentional of who we spend our time with.
There may even be some unhealthy relationships you might want to consider backing off from
or cutting off completely.
It can be difficult cultivating new and different relationships because its always easier to
stay within our comfort zone.
Expect to have to go out of your way to make these new relationships happen.
Again.
Be intentional.
Choose who you want to stand out to.
Over the years I have spent a significant amount of time energy and money to get around
certain types of people.
I have spent money to take trips to get around people I wanted to develop a relationship
with that would make me a better person or whose relationship would help me better myself
at my chosen profession.
I have sent gifts to people that I wanted to stand out to and having that connection
with them might help us connect on a future endeavor.
Be intentional on which relationships you cultivate.
Those will be the ones that grow.
For those of you that would like to learn more about how to cultivate relationships
and live intentionaly I would recommend the books The 5 Love Languages which will help
you learn why some people love getting gifts and others could care less and would rather
spend their time with you for example.
Another book I would recommend is called Intentional Living which will help you learn to live intentionally
just like the title says.
If this video helps ONE fellow gamer adapt their way of thinking and grow into the type
of person they have always dreamed of becoming... than my time has been well spent.
If this video has helped YOU in any way then help your fellow gamers out and share it with
them!
Remember to give the video a big thumbs on that like button and subscribe
And until next time... remember to Keep moving forward!
