The more infinite the game is, the more creativity and patience you need The more finite a game is the more urgency and action you need

Most of the time issues arise from confusing the boundaries of the game - when you think the game is finite but it’s infinite and vice versa That being said - most of the time it usually stems from thinking it’s finite when it’s infinite - not the other way around

Thanks for sharing, just started reading and looks amazing already I really like this style of book with short chapters, each being compact statements of truth that lend to pondering far beyond the sentences. Similar to Marcus Aurelius’ meditations or Balthasar de Gracians “l’homme de Cour”

Hard to find in English, but got it here (17th century book) Lots of wisdom (Machiavelli’s prince meets Robert Greene’s Power and the nobility of the biblical Sirach / Ecclesiasticus ) with more nobility and less bloodthirstiness https://quod.lib.umich.edu/e/eebo/A41733.0001.001/1:4?rgn=div1;view=fulltext
