Obsession on life instead of video games

July 24, 2015 by Johan

I don’t know about you, but I obsess a lot.

When I find a interest, I research everything about it and do it until I’ve mastered it. That’s a good quality if you actually use it to further your life. And it can easily lead you astray like it did for me.

A typical day a couple of years ago.  Before work I would wake up next to my girlfriend, start my computer and play as much as I could before I had to leave for work. At work I would plan how to build my character, where to level up and what weapons I would use and watch the hours drag by, until I could get home and play my game.

The games took so much focus from my life that I neglected my work, health and relationships.

I woke up from this after our relationship ended on mutual terms and I had time to reflect and time to think on my own.

I remember when I sold Dark Souls 2 last year. I had stopped playing it, but came back to it once in a while to level up a new character. The thing is I’ve already done most of the challenges and if I took up a new one, I knew I would complete it given enough time and effort.

One day I had enough, packed my Xbox and games, went to a game shop to sell it whatever I could get for it. The price wasn’t important. As I handed the Xbox and games to the guy working the store, I didn’t feel much. He wanted me to get a bonus card, but told him I wouldn’t use it. As I left the store I got this immense feeling of a weight lifted from my chest and great relief.

By selling my Xbox it left me no choice but to do something else with my time. Before I had to say NO. Now there is nothing to struggle.

Now I wake up and play with my girlfriend, brew us both a cup of coffee before I leave for work. At work I’m doing my best, while making plans for how I could advance in my career, do my second job better and building this blog for you guys!

If you want to live a successful life, limit or eliminate your gaming habits.

It’s hard at first, but nothing worthwhile is easy.
