Rock, Paper, Scissors

Today, when I was working with one of my internet entrepreneur buddies the wireless internet disconnected. Being the lazy A’s that we are, we both did not want to “reset” it. We came to a decision that the loser of a simple rock, paper, scissors game would walk downstairs to restart the router.

Okay, So you guys are probably wondering. Why am I blogging this?

Alright, well being the competitive person that I am. I wanted to win. So before we played the game. I stategically thought out which position I would pick. Hmm… Rock, Paper, or Scissors? It doomed to me that Scissors was the best pick for this game! The chance that you’ll win is 50% or greater. So why do I think this? Well I figured that it’s human nature to change from the default rock position to something else, which leaves you with only two other possibilities. Most of the time someone will throw either scissors or paper. Making scissors the best choice because you can only tie or win, unless someone is not human and throws a rock. haha

I just grabbed a random video from youtube and watch what they throw.

Amazing, isn’t it . How does this have anything to do with being successful? Well it does, sorta…. my conclusion is that if you want to win (not only in silly games like this) you should analyze everything and think of the possible outcomes so that you get the upper hand.
