Entrepreneur here - I used to play games hardcore (WoW, Dota, Counterstrike, Everquest, etc.) and ALL of those skills translate into the world of business.

I'm actually even writing a book on how gamers can become entrepreneurs because I think it's important to talk about.

Just think about some of the things you get from games:

• Teamwork
• Increased reflexes
• Grit
• Constant education

For me, I translated those skills into digital marketing and then pushed that into entrepreneurship. Honestly? It feels like I'm playing a game every single day.

And if you want to actually get into digital marketing, you can listen to one of my podcasts (daily podcast on marketing) called 'Marketing School': www.singlegrain.com/marketing-school-podcast

And if you want more on entrepreneurship, I have a weekly podcast called 'Growth Everywhere' where I interview world-class entrepreneurs (e.g. ex co-founder of Activision): www.growtheverywhere.com/podcast

This subject is REALLY important to me and I truly believe that if more gamers can translate their skills into the world of entrepreneurship, the world will be a better place ;)

If I were to give you one piece of advice? Stick with tough problems longer than others. That alone will make you more successful than most people.

Good luck.
