Seven Games Of Life: And How To Play

Often, life can seem to be a serious business. We could also look at it is as a game--or a series of games. They include Survival Love Power Pleasure Courage Creativity The culmination is the Master Game, which one plays to gain not things or esteem, but knowledge, and to surpass one's limits as a human. Everyone plays these games, whether they want to or not. Mastering them makes the difference between a rich and successful life and one of disappointment and failure. In this brief, bracing, but insightful book, Richard Smoley will give a lively but profound account of these games. He talks about the ways we usually play them the mistakes we often make and how we can play them to the benefit of ourselves and others Richard Smoley is the author of thirteen books including G&D Media's Introduction to the Occult. Now he interweaves ideas from great thinkers such as Epicurus, Hobbes, Freud, Machiavelli, and Tolstoy with his own dry and irreverent wisdom, gleaned from forty years of spiritual study and practice (and real-world experience), to show how to live happily, successfully, and meaningfully.
