I Turned My Life Into A Video Game

My reality started to shift once I began to look at it as if this is all just one big game. We’re all just players within this game of reality.

I’m Growing up, video games were a big part of my world. They were more than just a way to kill time; they shaped how I saw things. But now, even though I don't play much anymore, I've started seeing my own life kind of like a video game. It's not that I don't have time for games, but life itself has turned into a game for me, especially as the whole idea of living online and in digital worlds gets more real.

I Turned My Life Into A Video Game

Thinking back, I've always liked the idea of life being like a game, way before everyone started talking about virtual realities or getting lost in sci-fi stories. Playing a game, you pick a character to explore with, and that's pretty much what we do in life too. We're all moving through this world, trying to complete missions, earn rewards, and sometimes just wandering to see what's around the corner.
Life feels super similar to this. It's like we're all characters in this huge game, each of us with our own missions and adventures. When you start a game, you often get to pick who you want to be, and each character comes with their own set of skills and weaknesses. This got me thinking about how we're all kind of like those characters, each of us unique, with our own strengths and things we're not so good at.
Ever stop to think that maybe, in a way, we're all just characters in the game of life? It's a weird thought, but it's been on my mind a lot. The thing is, no one really hands you a manual on how to play this game. We've got all these rules and systems people have made over the years, trying to explain how to fit in and what to do, but there's no personalized guide just for you, telling you how to make the most of everything you've got.
We're living in a time that feels faster and more open to possibilities than ever before. Everything's changing, and all the old rules about how to live and what to believe are up for grabs. It feels like the perfect moment to rethink who you are and how you want your life to be.
Thinking about life as a game, it's like your reality is the game's platform, and your mind is the controller. This view has changed how I tackle everyday stuff. Every challenge I face, every new thing I learn, it's like leveling up in real life. These aren't just tasks or hurdles; they're chances to grow and get better at this game.
Life's full of layers – it's mental, spiritual, and so much more. Viewing it as a game helps me see the challenges and wins in a different light. It's about more than just getting through each day; it's about discovering, learning, and pushing myself to see what's possible.
Seeing life this way, as a game we're all playing, makes the journey more exciting. It turns the tough parts into challenges I want to beat, and the good parts into rewards I've earned. It's a way to make life feel more like an adventure, where every experience, good or bad, teaches me something.
This game-like view of life doesn't mean I don't take things seriously. Instead, it helps me focus on what I can control and change. It makes me want to explore more, try new things, and not be afraid of failing, because that's all part of the game.
Living like this, where life itself feels like a game, opens up a whole new way of seeing the world. It's not about winning or losing but about playing the game in a way that feels right to you. It's about taking on life with a bit of strategy, some curiosity, and a lot of heart.

Do This Instead Of Your Spiritual Practice

Sometimes the best thing that you can do right now to awaken, is to actually do something. The answers that you’re looking for, are closer to the edge of where you have completed some task to get there, at least most of the time. Don’t use your spiritual practice to avoid something you really want to be doing instead.
