The Best Lessons from Game of Thrones

What you can learn about your Life from Game of Thrones

I am a Television addict and any new or movie or television serial which involves either some comedy (friends, big bang theory etc) or violence, thriller, love and sex of course (breaking bad, teen wolf, lie to me etc) always intrigues me. Today, I decided to write about one of these TV series called "Game of Thrones" released by HBO some-time last year. I although am watching now after reading my brother's blog post.

After you are done with this reading and if you are a fan of this series then I would definitely recommend a reading. He needs to update after season 1 episode 7 though.

Game of Thrones is indeed a back-stabbing, political, primate story which you can relate to your life. Its not just a fantasy story about warlocks, brothels and dwarves.

Anyways, here is what I've learn and I want to share.....My Lessons and Advice:

1.) There are No shortcuts in life (unless you win a lottery and you know the chances): A lot of you want to be your own boss and think its an overnight process, but if you want to succeed, just like Jon Snow you have to learn the very basics and work your way up to the top. Never give up and learn to listen to others. The power of listening came at a very late stage in life for me and my best advice would be to get a hold of it and master the art. You will be a boss, you will be a leader surely but remember not to forget the building blocks and art of following.

2.) Your path to a life of Ultimate Fulfillment will not be accomplished even if you're a monk: Ned Stark is the perfect example for this..... hold on, I am not saying that he is a monk. He is though to some extent considering the plot of Seven Kingdoms of Westeros. What I am trying to say is that when you try to go high up the ladder and you see that there is no stopping you, you forget to watch your back and what's around you. Its important to keep a close eye on your colleagues, friends, family and their good+bad schemes they might be plotting at this very moment. Accept this hard truth and you will lead a more fulfilled life. Accept people for their good and their bad elements and learn to adjust yourself accordingly.

3.) When you play the game of thrones, you win or you die: If you remember the scene of Cersei Lanister with Ned stark she uses these words. When it comes to outcomes and decisions there is nothing such as 50-50 as I say. You have to choose one path and stick to it and focus on it, one way or the other then you will find closure. 
Take for example any large level sales deal. The greater the extent and amounts involved, the greater the politics and at any time any thing can happen. Either the client is with you for life or you'll never hear of him/her unless its with a competitors listing.

I have many more thoughts and I will continue writing more on this soon.... I promise.
