Game Theory: Winning the Game of Life

Every decision you make is a game. You just don't know the rules yet.

When you negotiate a raise, you're playing a game. When you decide whether to trust someone, you're playing a game. When you choose a lane in traffic, pick a side in an argument, or figure out whether to cooperate or compete, you're playing a game.

Game theory is the science behind all of it. A mathematical framework that explains why people make the decisions they do, and more importantly, how to make better ones.

It's the reason Cold War superpowers didn't destroy each other. It's how billion-dollar companies decide their next move. It's the logic behind every negotiation, every conflict, and every alliance you've ever been part of, whether you realized it or not.

The question isn't whether you're playing. You are. The question is whether you're playing well.

This episode breaks down game theory from the ground up. What it is, how it works, and how understanding it can sharpen the way you think about every decision you face, from the mundane to the life-changing.

🎧 After this episode, you'll start seeing games everywhere. And you'll finally know how to win them.
