A Great Big Board Game...

What if life was just a great big board game ? There are no dice, we just get to choose, every day, whether we move one square forward or we stay where we are. So, not moving forward today is fine - the game will just take a bit longer to play, but we’ll still get to the bonus squares at the end eventually.

But what if we misread the rules ?

What if every day we don’t move forward, we’re moving one square backwards instead ?

If those were the rules, would it change how we play the game….?
