Scrabble like any contest or sport offers lots of life lessons:
- The more you play, the better you get
- You play better when you give the game 100% focus
- When you doubt yourself or get stressed out, you don't play as well
- There are many strategies for successful play
- Pay attention to the opportunities that exist
- Don't hold on to your valuables for too long--put them to use when you can
- Don't squander your valuables, use them with intention
- Overplay leads to less value--there's a just-right amount of play that's positive, and that quotient is different for everyone
- Doing what you love relaxes you
- When you do what you love, you meet people with similar mindsets, interests and that brings joy
- Healthy competition is good for you
- Have fun, don't take it too seriously
