How does one win at life?

When you stay loyal to your own beliefs and goals, without becoming ignorant, when you achieve happiness by realising the beauty of life.

You dont. Their is no way to win, only fail.


If in doubt then set it on fire because fire is A if not THE answer and solution to absolutely everything.

It is, but Ive gotten over it. Nobody is special, the universe doesnt care about any single person, life hasnt selected you, you are not some prophet and you are most likely doomed to live life as just another average or below average person and are going to die and be forgotten just like everybody else and if there if religion is real you are likely to go to hell.

you can't fail if you were indifferent to it to start with

You always fail in the end because death is considered failure and everybody dies.

Just to add my thoughts: I don't consider death failure and whoever does so didn't realise that is a part of life.

I agree that life can be beautiful.
But i want to participate in that beauty, not being just an observer of it.

I don't know how you can be indifferent to your own life. I don't think anyone is.

Death is an end, not a failure.

When you win a race the race is finished too.
Doesn't mean you didn't win.

I'm trying. But things seem to have a tendency to slip away.

Money is power and power is winning and winning is awesome. That is the answer to your question.

I'm pretty sure you're just trolling, but still how can you fail if it's out of your control?

Are you implying that the first living organism which died is the ultimate winner of life and the universe?

Haha, no.
I'm saying that the ending of your life (or anybody else's) is not a failure by definition.

Suicide, brah. Either that, or make the best scam ever and makes loads of dough. And by dough I mean money. Unless you'd rather have actual dough than money.

So your saying once you do, the game the universe plays with you isn't over, since that means death isn;t the end, just another continuation.
