The game content:
The whole game throughout one's career, from the beginning of the workplace of the green years, to the spirit of the burning years (the first 10 ~ 15 years), and then to the fatigue of the first show, doom and gloom of the great years (15-25 years). When you first enter the workforce, you will be given an entrance gift of 10-100 gold coins by luck of the draw, and then you can configure x number of education cards, x number of skill cards, and x number of dream cards at your own discretion. After that, you also need to choose an industry. All choices are completed and the game officially begins. Each round of the game consists of: 1. drawing an Uncommon card (good or bad, depending on luck); 2. collecting the cost of living, and if you can't make ends meet, you have to go out of business and wait for a chance to re-enter the game; 3. making a salary, which consists of gold coins and chips (both tangible and intangible assets); and 4. trading cards + gold coins for chips, as well as banking transactions (investing or borrowing). At the beginning of the next round, a career change session is added (at a cost of chips). Each round has an interactive sharing session of awareness, reflection and action. Each decision is made within 10 minutes. At the end of the Fired Up Years, there is a round of doubling your assets and auctioning off a number of opportunity cards.
Reflection 1: Career Choices
When you first enter the workplace, it is so important to choose a career that is right for you! Once in the workplace deep like the sea, if very rashly into a field to choose a career, after a few years to find that it is not suitable, the cost of replacing the career needs to be increased year by year, and the risk will be more and more. But if you enter a new field rashly and find that it is still not suitable, what if you enter a new pit? Continuously switching between industries may result in always doing basic bottom-level work.
To look at it from a dialectical point of view, choosing a career and sticking to it regardless of whether it is suitable or not seems to be the most cost-effective, but if there is no growth, it seems to be very boring.
Thinking about it further, even if you are satisfied with your career choice, the road to development is not always smooth. What if you encounter a career bottleneck? I believe that every working person will be at 5 years, 10 years, 15 years. There is confusion, even after retirement, in addition to square dancing, watching children and grandchildren, what can settle down to find value?
In addition, like Yu Fei mentioned, the future development of the industry may be 5-10 years an iteration, even if you want to dig deep in an industry, but accidentally "happy to mention" sunset industry, white busy work for a few years, re-entry to stand to the moment of entry, the youth is no longer, and where to go? These are worth thinking about.
Reflection 2: seize the opportunity
? The game is played round by round, seemingly smooth, but in fact, the dark current. Every decision actually triggers opportunity or defeat. Accumulation of a small amount into a large number, is the fruit or evil consequences, will be slowly revealed in the back. For example, the income and expenditure of our 3 groups have always been barely balanced, pumpkin sister once suggested bank loans or borrow money from the tycoon, but the other members, especially I would think that we are not at the end of the mountain, there is no urgency to go into debt first. As a result, play to the great years, once the economic crisis, when the national depression, debt, almost bankrupt. Fortunately, the 3 groups are not dead little strong, in the friendly neighbors timely assistance, barely through the difficult times, rushed to get paid to hold the cash flow of the moment, we quickly take action, by virtue of the auction to an opportunity card (wealth to achieve 1.5 times the one-time transaction), the whole field of 8 groups of gold collected together, leading everyone to achieve wealth growth, and appropriate extraction of profits as a return. At this time, the team's tacit understanding, quick reaction force, quick action, and superb social communication skills immediately presented, within 10 minutes to complete the transaction, to realize the reverse!!!!
? Remember which book said, life is only 3 times the opportunity. To seize the opportunity, you must first have the insight of the opportunity, and the foresight of the market rules. Earlier we did not have a sense of crisis, did not borrow with the tycoon, behind the want to borrow can not borrow; did not realize that the bank transaction moment, almost exhausted. Fortunately, after barely getting through the difficult times, we quickly adjusted, insight opportunities, and led the whole field of 8 groups trading, realize *** win, and finally put a deck of cards that is not good and not bad to play the best results. In addition to insight, the various abilities that we usually accumulate were also demonstrated in this emergency moment. Interestingly, all three of us have been exposed to the "cash flow" game, learned the basic financial management class, so we are in the matter of making money on the exact same idea, communication seconds to understand, action force bar. So, you don't have to worry about the tuition fees, you don't have to think about forgetting what you've learned, and every step you take counts.
Reflection 3: Effective socialization
At the beginning of the game, there was a "liaison officer" in the group's division of roles. At first, we didn't realize the importance of this role. The first time I saw this, I was able to get a little bit more interaction, but at most, I was able to ask about my career, my income, my current assets, and so on, and I wasn't able to get into a deeper conversation. On the contrary, when the second group drew a baby, a chip card given by Ada on the spur of the moment played a big role. It is this card so that we and other groups to make up the difference, so that the second group on the verge of bankruptcy helped us a lot, and later became "life and death friendship", live together, together rich! In this era of information explosion, microblogging jitterbugs rampant, everyone's circle does not move thousands of people, but how many are able to reach out at the critical moment to help a hand? So, life has three or two confidants, a great blessing ~ even if it is not a lifelong confidant, in this life on the road to meet the same frequency **** line of colleagues, friends, has been rare, and walk and cherish! I'm grateful to the Onion Book Club for the great positive energy partners I've met every time I've participated in an event!
Reflection 4: What is the most important?
The main props of the game include dream cards, education cards, skill cards, gold coins, and chips. At the beginning of the game, when it was not clear what their roles were, we all felt that the more of these things, the better, or at least each one of them should be there. Even in the second half of the game, the education card is directly depreciated and useless, and the skill card + dream card can only be exchanged for chips, including us on the verge of bankruptcy, but still do not want to spend all the chips, as if we are obsessed with the "already have things to be held in the hands of". In life, what do we leave behind, what do we take with us, and when is what most important? The answer to this question is that there are many people who have to give up in order to get something, and it's easy to say and hard to do.
Life is like a play,
play like life,
may we,
at any time,
are not responsible for their own,
to give their best.
After a thousand sails,
return is still a teenager.
This is the first time I've been to the United States.
