Robin Moriarty

Author Robin Moriarty poses an interesting question: How do you define success for yourself? Are you holding yourself to your own scoreboard or are you living your life based on the expectations of others? In What Game Are You Playing Robin Moriarty explains that we have been conditioned to measure our success based on what others expect of us and not what we truly want for ourselves. She then provides a framework on how to examine your own life, map out what is most important to you and how to make changes so you can live your life based on your own success measures. She provides many examples both from her own life and from others to help get the reader going. It's such a simple and profound concept.

This is a case of reading the right book at exactly the right time. I've been wanting to make some changes in my life, feeling dissatisfied with certain areas, but without really identifying why. Robin's way of gamifying how you measure self-success and the exercises provided in this book were exactly what I needed to get me thinking and help me map out a game plan to make changes starting today. I can already see this is going to be a book I reread many times. I hope others find it just as useful and impactful as I did.
