The Game of Life!

By
Mortgage and Lending with Opes Advisors, INC.

As I was winding down and getting ready to slip into bed I noticed my phone's light blinking alerting me of  an email. I read it and could'nt resist but to share. It said the following:

Dear Jose,

Please repeat this simple saying. "I AM playing the game of life and it is meant to be FUN!" If you endeavor to always remain within this simple understanding Jose your life will begin to smooth out and you will enjoy it a lot more. This is not rocket science here, it is merely a game and all of the rules are designed to help you be, do and have whatever you desire. Simply learn the rules and use them to your advantage. It is easy and effortless when you know the rules and play by them. - Richard Blackstone -

This is so true! We are merely creating our own game as we live life. You can create your own rules and play by them. Play your game of life and make it FUN! Make it a great day!

I AM playing at the game of life and it is meant to be fun!  Although, it really isn't a game, it's the real deal.  So have fun, but be careful too...

Thanks for your post.  I worked for 35 years in another field to make a living and now I get a chance at a second career that's fun!  Having fun with your job boosts one's performance as well.

You have to enjoy what you do or why do it.  There are no guarantees as to how long we get to play the game of life.

Take care.
