Working out the best route and following it to your destination without missing any important locations is as rewarding in real life as it is in gaming. The only difference is that we're less likely to come across a treasure chest or pimped-out safehouse.

Taking on side quests and honing your skills is the way to progress, and in life it's the same. Every time you do an odd job or run an errand you're levelling up. Remember that next time you get asked to pick up milk for the third time that week.
It's never fashionable to play as the medic in a game, but you can guarantee that you'll be the one everyone relies on when you are. You're indispensable, and the end-of-match score tables will reflect as much. Being that guy in real life can be a thankless task, so next time you have to sacrifice a night out to carry your puke-stained pal home from the pub, just imagine it unlocks an achievement.
It's good to approach life with the idea that everyone is worth talking to, because you never know where a conversation could lead you until you initiate it.
But a gamer with a clean conscience knows they have to play to the final whistle and take the hit. Life is similar. It's all too easy to throw the towel in, but accepting defeat makes the victories that much sweeter when they come.
Take this idea into the next row you have with your superior at work. We don't recommend challenging them to a sword fight, but if you're constantly hitting a brick wall, think of another way to approach the situation. Pattern recognition is key to bosses in games in the real world and in the gaming. It aways pays to know what them turning red means. There's always a route to victory.
Neglect your all-important zzz's and your productivity will suffer for it. Plus, if you're randomly attacked by a monster while skulking through long grass - be it in a video game or in daily life - you're going to stand a much better chance if you've had a proper night's rest.
