How is winning is "form of life," you may ask? Winning is "language games", tiny, self-contained systems of rules that dictate how words and actions gain meaning.

"Winning" is one such game, a concept whose significance depends entirely on the agreed-upon rules of a specific context. In chess, "winning" involves checkmating your opponent. In capitalism, "winning" involves having more zeroes in your bank account than your neighbor, ideally with some schadenfreude on top. In relationships, "winning" is... oh, wait, that's called therapy.
