In The Infinite Game, Simon Sinek provides readers with a fresh perspective on how to approach their professional lives. He argues that in order to achieve long-term success, we must shift our focus from winning finite games to playing an infinite game. To do this, we must first understand what sets the infinite game apart. Whereas finite games are based solely on competitors’ efforts to defeat each other, the objective of the infinite game is evolution – it can never be won or lost because there’s no final destination. Participants in an infinite game embrace learning and growth as they continue playing; every new experience brings them one step closer to understanding the complex system they’re part of. Sinek draws upon examples from business, politics , sports and beyond to illustrate how embracing infinity leads not onlyto sustained success but also makes life more enjoyable along the way .
