You gotta play the game right before it plays you

"You gotta play the game right before it plays you." There are times in life, where taking advantage or taking something for granted is done for good. Let's say, MOST of the times, people take advantage of each other.. I understand it this way, it's either they really need it, or they just have bad intentions for doing it. Either way, you should find out at first, why they're doing it. I mean, you should be careful on the people around you. You may not notice it, but they might already are taking advantage of you, you're just blinded by how "nice", or w/e acts they do to you. Hmpph. That quote.. Ugh. I'mma say I am sometimes selfish. Selfish to my parents, bro & sisters.. but there's a reason behind everything I do. It is for them to realize that I'm just being careful enough not to do anything wrong. Not to hurt them if ever something happens. & also, there are times where you should make the first move, to not get hurt by something later on.. cause you don't know what could happen. It's better to hurt someone else before they hurt you. Be frank to them, tell them how you feel. That way they will understand everything more. There will be conflicts, of course, but as soon as possible, let them know, before your load becomes too heavy. Too heavy to carry. Before the game strives for the win. Learn from it. Games are not always about wins & losses.. Games are for learning, for reaching for the better, for figuring out your mistakes, violations, or techniques. Who gives a fuck about winning or losing. Oh yeaah, so people praise you, or underestimate you. It doesn't mean you're gonna stay like what you are forever. You may not get far, but you'll get through it. Who cares what they fckn tell you, don't let it affect you. Don't show them you're hurt. Don't tell them the same things. Find the will to control yourself & change for what is best. Fuck them, live your own life. It's yours, not theirs. It's your game. Make it, or break it. Give and take. Play it.
