I am blogging everyday (or nearly everyday) on The Daily Stoic.

How I handle adversity says a lot about me as a person. In video games it’s easy to blame the other team for cheating or worse our teammates for not pulling their weight. I’ve used these as opportunities to search inward and replay how I could have done better. In my youth I had the hand and eye coordination to play video games at a high level. Those are fading as I age and I have to look for new opportunities to improve. I have to out think and out strategize people because they will be quicker than me. The obstacle is the way.
