Moving on to the much-anticipated Playbook practice.
I loosely defined the Playbook as a new perspective and guide on playing the game of life for the Everyday Heroine.
Happiness may be the easiest one to agree upon in this way. Each person has a unique perspective on what makes them happy. It is very personal and specific to each person. I love it because it inspires a very rich and colorful way to live life. It can bring out the beauty in humanity. We can see how the products and services we use and consume are designed to allow for a unique experience for self-expression. With different colors, shapes, and sizes we feel like we can get exactly what we want to make us feel like true individuals.
Now when we take a similar approach to life and liberty, we can open a conversation that is free to explore the extremes. Liberty, also known as freedom and independence has a sliding scale where one side opposes the other.
The balance between surviving and thriving is something we know a little bit about. We can send regular everyday humans into space and bring them back safely. As humans, we can learn more and thrive more, so the Playbook is a place to start the conversation so that everyone benefits.
From my perspective, I see the Playbook as a way to educate and inspire women to live a life of empowerment. It is a topic I am passionate about, and it is my mission in life not only to live a more empowered life myself but also to help others do the same.
So it looks like the Playbook is turning into a practice of gaining perspective on life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as we play the game of life like an Everyday Heroine.
First, let me remind you of the outline I started previously.
There are 7 facets to the Playbook guidelines:
As you may know, I am generally following the Major League Baseball rule book as I create this Playbook. And it may surprise you that the objective of the game of baseball is described in 6 sentences.
I will read them to you for perspective and appreciation of the game known as America’s National Pastime.
As I bring this episode to a close, I’ll share the 6 sentences that make up the objective for this Playbook and Playing the Game of Life - like an Everyday Heroine.
1.0 The Objective of the Game
- The Game of Life is a game played by a human living in a physical world between birth and until death, under the direction of that human being, and in accordance with the rules of nature.
- The human has cycles of sleep and wake stages that are a normal part of surviving and thriving, under the hierarchy of Maslow’s needs.
- During the sleep stage, the human enters a state that provides rest and replenishment that supports advancement for the human’s existence during the wake stage.
- During wake stages the human enters a realm with a variety of options for existence that ultimately facilitate growth and advancement.
- The objective of the human is to progress through the hierarchy of Maslow’s needs based on the human conditions available in the physical world at the time of existence.
- The quality of life is solely judged by its creator and there is no such thing as losing.
That gets us started on the Playbook for now. There will be so much more to come in next week’s episode and beyond.
