The End Game

Often, I have been asked, "What is your end game'. Every time I struggled for a very correct answer. We like to give smart answers than the truth. It is easy. It creates instant impression. Truth could be boring. It ends quickly.

Honestly, I never understood meaning of end game. I think, so long we are alive, the game is on. There is no end game. There is always the last game. A game you are playing just before the death.

We play because that's what we like to do. Some play piano and some on canvas for hours with colors. Entrepreneurship is also a game. It is more like a team game. Like football. We do shift from one game to another. Reasons could be any. Played too many times hence boring. Or, depressing because most players have become better than you. Winning is very integral part of games. If we are not winning or hope to win is  diminishing, we may quit it. Hanging on to loosing game for a long time is surest way to make your psychiatrist rich.
