“One of our board members gave me this book called the infinite game and it's the original infinite game book. There's some follow-ons from it about like how to implement the infinite game, so I forget the original author. So, there's a book by Simon Sinek which is the infinite game. The original finite and infinite games, I believe is Carse.”

And side note on that, you were mentioning, you know, what am I optimizing for, which sounds very much like it could be a Derek Sivers question. He has a lot of good questions. A variant on that that I've also found helpful is what game am I playing? We're all playing games. So, it's like aside from shelter, food, a handful of the basics at the very bottom of Maslow's hierarchy of needs, like we're all playing games. So, what games are you playing? What are you trying to win? And becoming cognizant of the that is for me at least step one. And I think I don't know if this is a question that you've asked before, but like is that game worth winning? You know, like is this something that like am I climbing the right mountain or do I need to be climbing a different one? Cuz that's very important to make sure that you're in in the right game. Yeah, totally. So, you mentioned the tools not mattering so much. Choosing the inputs, we talked about books. Mhm.”
