You're focusing on the end goal.

And so if you can treat your life challenges and failure like that, kind of gamify it, it's a framework that really works.

And I feel like this is my approach for the videos we do, like this Ronaldo one or really any one that I've attempted.

We did another one of a dartboard.

Same thing that moves, tracks the dart.

Although in that one, if you give the dart to your buddy, then it can register that it's his dart and then the board moves

moves the opposite way.

So instead of getting a bullseye, he can't even hit the board.

And there again, tons of failures, but it wasn't like, I suck at this.

It's like, okay, I know one more way not to do this.

It stings.

It still stings, just like it stings in a video game.

But you're like, you know what?

Let's get back on it.

Let's try again.

I mean, I think it works in real life too.

Like you see this, for example, with kids, like toddlers, right?

When they're learning to walk.

When they don't like successfully walk, they're not like, oh, I suck at this, right?

They're immediately excited to try again.
