Video game addiction is when you have flow in this virtual world, but there is no framework that brings into generally transferrable skills - Instead, you can't transfer to real world, so you end up reliant on games - ! We need to create a broader philosophy or framework to transfer the development of skills to other things - This can be done through [[Pattern recognition]] - Example is Josh Waitzkin - Can also just be by changing your [[Worldview]], one where you can even see [[Life is a game]] - By doing so, that's a direct connection between how you used to see the world, into reality - Reminds me of Aidan's mission to show how it is transferrablew through his personal brand If we fail to see this connection, then [[Video games provide virtual meaning]] only. Some video games or other fictional media can be absolutely absurd (Grand Theft Auto V) where you know you can't transfer it to real life. But in more realistic games.
