Your First Weapon: Understanding the Game
Understanding The Game Before you win the game, you must first know you’re playing one Most people walk through life thinking they’re free. They go to school. They get a job. They earn a salary. They pay their bills. And somewhere along the way, they accept it: “This is life.” But what if life as most know it is just a well designed system? The Illusion of Choice Freedom is often marketed as something you already have. when in reality, it’s something you still have to earn. You think you’re choosing your job. You’re not you’re selecting from a list of acceptable cages. You think you’re choosing how to spend your time. But your calendar is filled with obligations owned by others. You think you’re in control. But you were handed a script the moment you could walk: “Work hard. Get good grades. Climb the ladder. Retire at 67.” By then, the ladder is broken or you’re too tired to climb it. The Game Beneath the Game There is a deeper system under the surface. Not a conspiracy. A design. It rewards those who understand: Power flows to those who can move money, not earn it. Respect flows to those who create, not obey. Freedom flows to those who build, not borrow. Most will chase money for decades and never own time. But those who learn the rules? They stop chasing. They start positioning. The Hidden Framework: System Thinking There are 3 invisible levers in this system Master them, and the game starts to bend in your favor. Information (Knowledge) Not just what school gives you but what the system hides. The real game is played in boardrooms, platforms, and ownership. Positioning (Leverage) One person with distribution, tools, or audience can outperform 100 workers. The system favors those who create impact at scale. Movement (Execution) Ideas don’t win. Action does. People spend years planning and lose to someone who just moves. This is the real game. Not 9-to-5. Not university. Not savings accounts. The Book That Woke Me Up One of the first books that helped me see this was “The Millionaire Fastlane” by MJ DeMarco. “The problem isn’t working. The problem is what you’re working on.” MJ It’s not a get-rich book.It’s a get-real book. It strips the illusion. It explains the system. It tells you why time is more valuable than money and why money without freedom is just a golden prison. If you’ve never read it, start there.And then keep going. This blog is only Chapter 1. Final Words: Awareness Is Your Weapon You don’t need to rage against the system.You don’t need to escape it. You need to understand it. Because once you do, you stop playing by the rules that keep others trapped. You don’t hustle harder you move smarter.You don’t look for the key you realize you are the key. And once that happens, business is no longer just a dream. It becomes your weapon of choice. BUY IT FROM HEREN ! BORN WITH NOTHING, BUILT INTO SOMETHING, CONQUERED EVERYTHING.
