ARE YOU BEING PLAYED?

In the rush of life, we often believe we are in control—making decisions, chasing goals, doing what we think we’ve chosen.

But pause for a moment and ask yourself: Are you truly directing your life, or are you unknowingly part of someone else’s script?

More often than we realize, we’re not the players—we’re the pawns. And the game? It’s being designed by unseen hands—society, corporations, media, influencers, even people close to us.

They spin the wheel.We move. And all the while, we think it’s us making the choices.

Let me explain with a powerful image:

Imagine an artist painting a beautiful image on a spinning platform.

To an observer, it looks like the painting is scattering into chaos, breaking apart.

But in truth, the painting is still. It’s the platform beneath that’s rotating. The illusion of disorder is simply the result of the spin.

The artist, standing outside, sees the truth. But the audience? They get caught in the spectacle.

Life works the same way.

Your career, your emotions, your routines—they may be spinning on platforms controlled by someone else’s agenda.

You feel movement. You feel momentum. But are you actually progressing—or just being kept busy inside a loop designed for their gain?

That’s where self-awareness becomes your superpower.

Pause. Detach. Become the spectator of your own life. Ask:

“Who benefits from what I am doing?”“Is this truly my dream—or a borrowed one?”“Am I the painter, or just the spinning canvas?”

Don’t let your energy be consumed dancing to someone else’s rhythm.

Work hard, yes—but work smart. Put your time and effort where your vision is nurtured. Where your dreams are painted—not where you’re just a performer in someone else’s theater.

Because the moment you see the spin, you stop being the pawn. You start becoming the player.
