Life is about making tough decisions, what the consequences might be for that decision or what the rewards might be as a result. These are the decisions that we build experience with what is right and what is a wrong decision to make. One classic game that I can relate these decisions to is the game, Chess. When people think about chess, they think of the classic game moving the pieces around the board and checkmating the king to win the game. However, if you really analyze the game and learn to think ahead this game can have a major impact on life.
There are many professions that Chess can relate to such as art, when the artist scopes out the board and how to execute the steps to painting a great piece of work and others that involve thinking ahead. One main career that Chess can relate to is owning a business and the pieces in Chess symbolize the business’s assets. For instance, the business would be represented by the king and you need to protect the king with the other assets of the brigade in order to win over consumers from competition. Same concept when owning a business, in order for the business to succeed sales need to be made in order for revenue to be received. The whole game of chess is like steps to success in a business protect the king at all costs and if the king gets checkmated that equals bankruptcy for the business.
Another aspect of life that chess can relate to is the ability to be patient with what happens until your plan falls into play. The classic saying “slow and steady wins the race” are exactly the words that describes an outlook to have on life. When playing chess people are patient to think and plan their next move and in life some people are patient to wait for the one true love and find their passion that they hope to pursue in life. Patience is one of the key things that some people can learn from playing chess.
The entire game of chess is like living life you make good moves and that opens doors to great opportunities and when the opponent takes a piece thats life throwing a curve ball. If you enjoy to play chess then their is no reason why you shouldn't have a positive attitude on life. Keep thinking about how you keep going through the motions of life thinking about the future and how to get to a goal the best way. Every move you make in chess is like a decision you make in life it could be good or bad, but it will help you build as a person and in life in general. When you make decisions in life, like you make in chess remember to protect what the most important thing is at the moment.
