The Games of Life: Discover the Hidden Motivations Shaping How We Live
What if life isn’t one journey—but many different games being played at the same time? 🎯
💡Human life is filled with many pursuits—security, relationships, money, knowledge, influence, service, creativity, and personal growth. But what if these pursuits are actually different “games of life” that shape how we spend our time and energy?
🌱In this thought-provoking MOTIVATE Community webinar, Adrian Cahill introduces a fascinating framework for understanding human motivation and life choices. Participants will explore how different life games influence decisions, priorities, and personal fulfilment.
Many of these games are not consciously chosen. They are influenced by family, culture, education, and social environments.
📅This session invites you to step back, reflect, and gain deeper self-awareness about the games you are currently playing—and how they shape your life.
Join this engaging conversation and begin exploring life with greater awareness and clarity.
🚀**Key Takeaways**
✅ Understand the concept of the Games of Life framework
✅ Discover how human motivations shape life choices
✅ Recognize unconscious influences affecting life decisions
✅ Explore different life pursuits such as security, relationships, career, knowledge, and service
✅ Gain greater self-awareness about personal motivations
🚀**Additional Benefits**
✅ Reflect on what currently drives your life
✅ Learn how different pursuits interact and influence each other
✅ Increase clarity about your priorities
✅ Begin exploring how awareness changes decision-making

**About Lunatechs**
Lunatechs is a community for people **crazy about technology** — founders, developers, AI builders, creators, and tech enthusiasts.

Most of the time we’re focused on **changing the world ….** For a few hours, let’s focus on **you — your mind, body, and soul.**
Book Discussion: Empire of Pain: Secret History of Oxycontin
Unlike the usual BYOB format of this group, this is an **assigned reading format.** **You are expected to have read some of the book** to join the discussion :)
I am excited to finally read this book, its an award-winning, one of the most highly rated non fiction books across Goodreads/Amazon and for good reason!
About the book:
# A grand, devastating portrait of three generations of the Sackler family, famed for their philanthropy, whose fortune was built by Valium and whose reputation was destroyed by OxyContin. From the prize-winning and bestselling author of Say Nothing.
*"A real-life version of the HBO series Succession with a lethal sting in its tail…a masterful work of narrative reportage.*” – Laura Miller, Slate
“*The opioid epidemic has killed nearly half a million Americans over the past two decades. Many of their loved ones, along with public health advocates and experts, believe that one very rich, very famous family has never fully faced the consequences for its role in those deaths. EMPIRE OF PAIN, the explosive new book by journalist Patrick Radden Keefe, is an attempt to change that — to hold the family accountable in a way that nobody has quite done before...*” —Jonathan Cohn, The Washington Post
Note:
* **location subject to change** but we'll keep it around Wan Chai District.
* You **must** buy something at the venue.
* **First timer attendees** are requested to contribute 20HKD to fund the Meetup Group Subscription.
* No-Shows make the host sad (please update your attendance)

Shut Up & Write!® East Side Columbus
Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, March 25 at Streetlight Guild.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.
**SCHEDULE:**
6:45ish - Quick introductions
7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour
8:00 - The End
**OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.
**BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild!
**WHAT SHOULD I BRING?**
Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you!
**OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:**
* **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space!
* **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels.
* **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay!
* **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.

Round 2:
* Community events you wanna plug. If none, that's cool too.
Round 3:
* Job opportunities you're hiring for OR announce that you are looking for one. If none, that's cool.
After the introduction circle, everything is self-organized! Feel free to work alone, pair up, attend one of our workshops/presentations, or mingle!
