LIFE IS OPEN WORLD GAMEPLAY

If you ever played games like Grand Theft Auto and Final Fantasy then you have played what are categorized as "open world" games. Meaning games that encompass the player to "free roam" and not follow a linear structure. In open world gameplay, you have the main storyline alongside a bunch of side quests/missions that are optional to complete but may give cool bonuses.

The gameplay is quite analogous to life in which, the storyline is our life's purpose and anything outside of our purpose may be positioned as a side quest. Knowing our lives are much more explorable/expansive than a video game it takes great responsibility to stay on track for our purpose. Often times we can get caught in the things that don't matter and it can delay the time on fulfilling our purpose[storyline].

Life is meant to be fun and enjoyed from many different angles but we must remind ourselves that we are working with limited time. Learning to work efficiently and staying on track is key to enjoying our lives to the fullest extent.

FORCE FIELDS

Ever wondered why Force fields in video games exist? I bet you thought they were nothing more than annoying nuances the developers created. However most of these Force fields serves a purpose. In most cases a Force field may appear because the player has not advanced far enough in the story, the space is not meant to be explored by the player and/or a player must posses a certain item for access. These Force fields are much like the Force fields/barriers we experience in real life!

We may have a big end goal for our life in mind. Most of us if we had the option would skip straight to the point where our goal is accomplished and we can have a free-for-all unfortunately life doesn't work like that. Our story serves a purpose and we must patiently and diligently play out each chapter in order gain what we want in the long run.

There are times in life where we would like to do something that necessarily isn't meant for us. A certain person may have a love for basketball but their destiny isn't in playing professional basketball. Much like the graphics that lies beyond the Force field, just because we can see what's on the other side doesn't mean it meant for us to go there. Life is simply giving a spectrum view of things and we should be grateful of what we get to see and continue on our own adventure.

Have you ever tried applying for a position that require certain credentials (I.e. College Degree ) and was denied even though you possessed the experience. In video games you may progressed very far in the game you may have even "beaten" it but if you lack a certain item you would miss out on playing extra content within the game. We can posses a lot of things in life but for some our goals specifics may be required and without those specifics we sabotage ourself from having the one thing we truly want.

So don't be weary of road blocks you may come to find out that they're for a good reason. Keep playing your game and life will always bring you to the areas you need to explore.
