If so, what games have you been playing lately?
ALSO, I'm acutely aware a lot of people here get weirdly vocal about games and how tHeY jUsT wAsTe tImE and aNy gOoD eNtRePrEnEuR sHoUlD oNlY fOcUs oN wOrK. This thread ain't for you. Please spare me the sigma nonsense.
I only ask because a good friend-turned-client of mine who I met through playing video games together mentioned how great it is to find someone of similar age and interests who also owns their own business so.. we can't be the only two people. And now I'm curious.
People who say they work all the time are full of shit. The guys who do work hard don't have to brag about it on Instagram.
Personally, I don't play any games for now. I've only played a little bit of Monopoly last year(like 2x-3x probably).
I'm not a native english speaker but I've learned a lot of english from playing video games when I was younger; particularly from games like the Need For Speed franchise, ROBLOX, LEGO games and GTA V. They're very helpful when it comes to learning a new language! It's a lot of fun too.
ROBLOX used to be a lot of fun. Learned a good amount of Lua and I'm sure it increased my creativity too from building and sculpting models on Roblox Studio. Minecraft can be good too. Especially if you're a builder type of entrepreneur; guys who love the process of building stuff from ground one.
But again, video games have to be treated diligently. You have to control THEM, and not let video games control you. Things can get out of wack if you let them take over your priorities. Playing a video game every once in a while is not gonna hurt you if you got priorities and work on your life.
It's just like the same thing with how porn/sex works with your dopamine in a way. Too much of it is not good at all.
