29 thoughts on “How video games are changing my life”
Thank you so much for this video…my gamer 20 year old son is awesome with so much potential… he’s shy, has monkey brain…. he wants to do something with his life but is so introverted. I will be sharing this with him….
Here's a diary entry I made LAST NIGHT (talk about coincidence. Divine providence, maybe?) "I'm feeling a little frustrated that I haven't done much lately to stay on top of chores. I've started this journal and felt happier, but once I was sufficiently happy, I stopped logging and then stopped doing chores. I wish I didn't have to get depressed to fix my life. I feel I'm not motivated properly. I want to be motivated when happy, not just when self-flagellating. I'm secretly afraid that I will always stay lazy, because if I ever learn to get out of the rut, I might just fall back in because 'XYZ is all fixed now and the time to exert effort is over'. When I think about it, I guess I just want the world to leave me alone. I'd rather just stay on my computer and play games/watch YouTube. I guess I'm just pissed that I have to do things. My hope is that I'll learn to love the real world by doing chores, but it doesn't seem to stick."
Anyone have any thoughts or advice or to continue where I left off?
Video games do have advantages and disadvantages. I don’t play video games but i know it changes your life in bad ways and good ways, thank you for this video
So many apps purport to gamify life in pursuit of self-improvement but so few people actually achieve meaningful personal development through those means. That's too bad. Imagine what we could achieve if we played our lives like we play our favorite games, with the same level of effort and an equal amount of commitment. Good discussion, Joey. I really enjoyed your take on the topic. I hope this videos helps someone complete a quest.
From someone who spends too much time on video games because it’s fun and easy, this video really hit me hard I need to level up my self and not an avatar that’s gonna change the next game I play, thanks good video
Does anyone have suggestions for ways to (digitally) plan out your objectives? I think it would be dope to represent it at nodes in a network where you go along the nodes to reach the objective at the end (that way you can set out the order of the "to do" and add nodes in between along the way)
I think something can we learn In life we say Next day, next day Like we have days and time But we just lose one more day for being better person ( better stats) Dont waste time guys This is only what we have
For me they are just a giant time sink and a way to escape my shitty life. Nothing really valuable has come from me spending my days depressed in games.

Great breakdown of the game of life. Enjoy camping!
I love how I don't play video games but still got a lot from this video.
"Video games are easy"

The production on this video is incredible!! felt like watching a movie..
Nice video. BTW: background music soundtrack in this video is just awesome.
I’m sure you happily justified donuts into your diet as a completely necessary movie prop hehe!
Damn
Life is a confusing game lol .

Damn, this was a really good one. I love that line “The greater the resistance, the greater the power.” Sounds like a good mantra.

I was just talking to my buddy ari about this game/life comparison. This is so weird. Love from PR, great vid.
In games like
We lose, ok next game
I think something can we learn
In life we say
Next day, next day
Like we have days and time
But we just lose one more day for being better person ( better stats)
Dont waste time guys
This is only what we have
