Playing and Winning the Game You're Built 4 FAQ's (Frequently Asked Questions)
What is the Game anyway?
It's an experience delivered in 3 Rounds:
Round 1: Game Basics. This round addresses the 7 Elements that are fundamental to all games and how these elements affect "Playing and Winning the Game You're Built 4." Without an awareness of how these elements interact you're stuck in a game with aspects not necessarily of your choosing and wondering why you're not winning regularly... essentially the Game of Life is playing you instead of you playing the game.
Round 2: UpLevel Your Game. This round introduces some truly powerful enhancements that can make your game even better, easier and more fun. Mastering concepts such as "Playing it Where it Lies" will dramatically change your everyday experience of your game.
Round 3: Mastering Your Game. This round is about transformation in your ability to play masterfully. When your game is working at its peak and flowing naturally it feels effortless. Not that there isn't energy expended but everything seems to work magically. When it's not like that, it's just hard and feels like a drudge and who wants that as a regular experience?

How long does it take?
Each round is a 2 day event of 8 hours per day (approx. 7 hours in play and 1 for lunch, unless of course you're playing with your food and then it's 8 hours of play).

How is it played?
Without giving away too much of the surprise, we explore each of the 7 Elements as well as 7 other moves in the game. All the moves except the open and close are randomly generated. This provides a lot of wonderful unpredictability and excitement. Just like life, huh?

How much is it?
There is a special entry fee for the March 5/6 event. If you're part of that group, please contact your Core Dynamics friend for clarification.
However, normally it works like this:
Round 1: Game Basics entry fee: $25 per hour X 14 hours = $350 per player (we know you're there for 16 hours but it doesn't seem right to charge you while you're eating lunch).
Includes all Game Artifacts necessary to Play Round 1.
Round 2: UpLevel Your Game** entry fee: $50 per hour X 14 hours = $700 per player (we know it's an increase but if you think of getting 14 hours of massage for that price, what happens after that 14 hours? Yup, you pay again. This is like a massage for the soul but it lasts a whole lot longer). Includes all Game Artifacts necessary to play Round 2. Also includes 1-30 minute Uplevel session with a Game Accelerator.
Round 3: Mastering Your Game** entry fee: $100 per hour X 14 = $1,400 (after all, you're worth that kind of investment in yourself and the rest of your life).
Includes 1-45 minute UpLevel session with a Game Master, 2-30 minute UpLevel sessions with a Game Accelerator and 1 night stay at the Game Site Resort.
**Round 1 is a pre-requisite for Round 2 and Rounds 1 & 2 are pre-requisites for entry into Round 3.

Is this a lot of lecturing/talking at me?
There is a lot of player participation in this highly interactive experiential event. There are games, exercises and processes both shared and solo. There are videos shown and music played. We just don't know which of those will happen in what order. Fun huh? There's even a grab bag to take us to other experiences. There's not much time left for lots of talking at anybody. Besides, those kinds of events bore the Bejesus out of me, why would we put one of those on?

Why should I come?
There's actually no reason why anyone should come. This experience is not a fit for everyone and we don't pretend it is. However, the main reason people do come is for...
Fun. There's no better reason for me. However, for those who want some reasons that others have played, here they are:
- "I'm looking for a different answer, all the rest of the 'have a better life' things seem like so much work."
- "I want to have a life 24/7 not just what's left after 9-5."
- "I want to learn a new way of thinking. I used to play a lot, now it's just work, work, work."
- "I'm wondering if I'm doing what I'm truly built for (I'm in my mid-40's).
- "I want to have MY life and not the life others want me to have."
- "I'm not using all my gifts and I feel like I'm wasting them."
- "Life is NOT fun. I want to feel like a kid again. Free."
- "I want a deeper sense of satisfaction, at work and at home."
So...
- If you'd like to have the feeling that the Games you're playing are all designed as if they were built just for you, then come.
- If you'd like the feeling of consistently being able to experience 'winning' in your life in ways that are important or meaningful to you, then come.
- If you'd just like to have a better time in all the games you've currently committed to, but are suffering through more often than not, then come.
- If you're having the time of your life in ALL aspects of your life then maybe you could come share with us how you're doing it. We're open to new ideas.
- Oh, the heck with it, just come.

What do I need to do to prepare?
Just showing up is big. It's also useful to be as clear as possible what focus you'd like to use the Game Experience to play with. It might be a large focus like the Game of Your Life, or it might be smaller, like the game of cleaning my garage (not my garage, yours, unless of course you have nothing else to do and have a compulsion to clean others' garages for them). Either way it's up to you. You can just decide in the moment when you get to the Game. That works too. Also, make sure you don't come naked. It's not that kind of game.

Who can participate and how can I use it after I leave?
Hmm...well, people who are addicted to the notion that life MUST be 24/7 serious aren't really a good fit here. Besides, most of us already know how to do that masterfully. As for the age of players, age isn't really a deciding factor. If a person's attention span is okay with 2 days of a Game Experience, then they'll be okay.
People use this in many ways after attending. Here are just some of the applications:
- The Game of Your Life
- The Game of Financial Independence
- The Game of Sales
- The Game of My Ideal Weight
- The Game of a New Business
- The Game of Cutting Edge Leadership
- The Game of Relationship
- The Game of Making a Difference
- The Game of My Next Promotion
- The Game of Being True to Myself at All Times
As you can see, the possibilities are as endless as you can think of multiplied by every human being on earth.
