Infinite play // Finite play 1—In flow // Anxious 2—Relaxing // Grasping 3—Surrendering // "Trying" 4—Exploring // Exploiting 5—Others are comrades // Others are tools 6—Unconditional love // Transactional 7—Integrity over Gain // Gain over Integrity (defection) 8—Detached from outcomes // Attached to outcomes 9—Not self-coercive // Self-coercive 10—Can be satisfied with what is (yet still strive for more) // Unsatisfiable grasping for more Everyone plays the infinite game, but some grasp at finite games too. Insecurity incentivizes grasping.
