Clarifying your goal is the first and most important step towards realizing it. Clarify is a three-day virtual game guaranteed to help you do just that. At the end of the game, the player whose goal is voted most clearly defined wins a special prize -- a $25 Amazon.com gift card.

To play you need three things: 1) a personal or professional goal you wish to explore, 2) willingness to give and receive feedback from others and 3) willingness to devote a minimum of two hours over a three day period.

“What a nice game,” one participant said. “It’s like a boxing match. You need to be aware of everyone else’s moves. You get a punch from one corner or a combination that gives you answers. I enjoy the challenge. Very inspiring.” Here's what others have said.

The way Clarify works is this:

• You enter into the virtual Game space, declare who you are and the goal you’d like clarified.
• While you’re doing this, all other players are doing the same.
• Game players post open-ended questions aimed at helping you clarify your goal, like
  • “How will you go about putting together a budget for it?”
  • “What similar projects have you undertaken in the past?”
  • “What support do you have for achieving the results you want?”
• The questions come to you in your e-mail and at the same time are posted on an internet discussion board, so that you and all the other players can see them.
• You answer the ones you want, while asking questions of others about their goals. The whole process gets you involved in conversations. It takes most players about three hours over three days to play the game.
• Towards the end of the process, you are challenged to take the feedback you’ve received and translate it into a reformulated goal and a simple plan that articulates your next steps
• On the last day, everyone votes for the player whose goal they consider the most clearly articulated.
• The winner gets a prize – a $25 Amazon.com gift card OR a 25% discount on participation in the full 10-week Game of Games. The game ends with a final optional teleconference or text chat during which the winner is declared and each player has an opportunity to declare their goal and the next step they’ll take.
