Artwork from collection "Cats of Success"

Life is just a game, but after a while we get bored, and then we try to reinstall the game itself, but all we really need is simply to continue playing. We are the players, the mysterious characters of the plot. The intelligent ones follow the rules and empower themselves to fulfill their dreams. The bold ones are rebellious, they break the rules, cheat, and go above and beyond to test the boundaries of the narrative while the creators, the storytellers lay back on their thrones witnessing the story unfold. Everybody participates, but the trick is to play the game – which we call life – leaning on our personal values and gaining unique skills while playfully reaching for the ultimate and utmost success. The goal is not defined in the rules; we set and reach it ourselves. The essence of the game is motivation, passion, the fire that awakens one’s body and mind. A good player always wins, in fact, whatever the game: whether they set traps in the market, play hide and seek in politics, or solve puzzles in strategy. In the game we build the character, set our priorities and the goal. We need to be reminded that it’s a game. We do need to be reminded to have fun. By taming this cat, whose playground is the game itself, you embark on life's journey with a friend who will advise you when to hide and when to seek. As the great unknown has said, “We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” So, dear soon-to-be owner, let the cat of games be your reminder of how fulfilling it is to play.
