God made you to play too. Just don’t let the game play you.

Play is not a break from the serious business of life. It is part of how people are built, and the trouble is the flip, which happens gradually. What you did for fun turns into a thing you owe, a ranking, an obligation with a schedule. The same activity can feed you or run you depending on which way the arrow points.

Check whether the thing you love is still something you choose. If it has become a job you never applied for, take a week off it and see who you are without it. Then go back, if you want to, and play one session with no score kept.
