    The Game

    So thanks to being offered the opportunity by Dhru to run a 45 day game with my partner for this life-changing experience Nirav (Mofo). I don't want to explain exactly what it is, I'd rather post my journal here and you decide what the game is to me. This is sort of out or order but I'm posting my game, and then I will post my before essay hopefully tomm.

    PURPOSE

    My whole life I’ve been taught to be a Man for Others. Over the past few years I’ve found the hustle of business and the shallow culture that surrounds me has deteriorated this essence of self. It is my goal to maximize my abilities and energy to be a man for others while it benefits me as well. I will let positivism prevail in all circumstances and these the most constructive 45 days of my life.
