Life Is A Game - Learn How To Win!
I have been thinking recently about the best markers to use when looking at life like a game. One of my primary ones is that of funnels.

New Year Ruminations of identity and change in 2023
@Destrola In the Quest tutorial there is a prompt that says: What goals did you achieve and what did you have to do to achieve that? This is the same prompt that you use on the habits section. The button that says you wrote stuff down says: "I have written down all my problems" So the prompt should be about Problems not achievements right?
@@sameerroshan9542 good catch, the red text on the quest tutorial should say "What problems do you have in life currently?". I shall update the template now, thanks for helping with that!
Only 3 habits are possible?
@@sameerroshan9542 in research I found 3 to be an optimal number that helped progress but didn't overwhelm the user
Thanks! I am currently looking for a job in tech as a new grad and its been a year cuz of bad tech market rn I have only had 1 interview. Really struggling but thanks for this idea of funnels!
Keep at it man, I'm sure your job is closer than you think!
your video was a LIVE SAVER, i have been searching someone that explain in detail how to build this, because i like to build thing in notion to learn formulas and has been SO DAMN HARD. You channel is amazing and is perfect for what i want to do. Thanks
you mentioned a free version to see the formulas, and i dont know if this is still available because i only see the paid version
I'm happy to hear it's helping you learn and grow!
The free version is under redesign currently, I will keep people updated on the new launch for it in my upcoming videos.
Realy good idea the "boss battle" ! ^^
Glad to hear you appreciate it 🧡
Not a bad analogy!
@@ChickenSkinFlynn I glad you think so as well 🧡
Is there a way to have a reminder on the dailies? Or maybe a recurring task? Also is there a way to have dailies repeat like one a week?
@@aledaartist9656 you can make repeating tasks by making them a template and scheduling them. You can also make sure your account is listed and will get a reminder when the new task is generated on the day.
@@destrola how do you make them a template? Like I wanna make a sub task of my main quest a daily repeating task that is due everyday. How do I go about doing that?
How did u get ur avatar like that?
@@aledaartist9656 they are animations I made and share with the owners of the real life RPG system on the discord (I made a community post about it recently)
Sounds awesome!! I'm along for the journey
@@AustinRockyRode glad to have you!
Will you launch a discord so that your community can share their use of your nice work ??
@@loichsimon that is one of the reasons, I want everyone to learn from what others have been doing as well!
I'm super excited for the discord! I've been wanting to start a gamification discord server for a while but haven't found the time for it yet so this is awesome! Great job for the video and I can't wait for the first newsletter!
Cheers man, I look forward to seeing how the discord evolves!
This looks amazing. Once again, Happy birthday!
I find it hard to stay focused. So I set up a huge habit tracker in Notion with 16 daily habits that is basically a routine; anything outside of those things go on a to-do list. I'm hoping that your Real Life RPG 2.0 will be able to help me refine my routine a little and give me some incentive to work harder.
Well I hope that it serves you like it has served me!
You do one main quest a day💀
I could have phrased it better 😅 What I meant to say is I do one sub-quest in relation to my main quest 😂
This is so cool.
Can't wait to try this v2 If we bought the v1 , must we pay again ? i heard in a another video that the upgrade would be free ?? And question : where are the boss ?????
@@loichsimon there should be a new post in the product update sections of the old versions with a link to the new version for you. As for the boss battles that will be in the next update when I finalise the multiplayer aspects (and animate a bunch of enemies).
@@destrola i changed a bunch of things on the first version , i cant find that product update section ^^ And the download link of the first version doesnt work anymore😓
@@loichsimon send me an email (with the email you used previously) at kurt@destrola.com and I'll send you the new file
@@destrola done, with a little improvment idea ;)
Very cool system you've built! I found this video because I'm trying to design something similar myself. I developed an analog productivity/creativity system organized into Field Note memo books using a Main Quests & side quests systems for prioritization as well. I am now in the process of learning how to build it into a digital system to share with others. It's cool to see like minded people out there. Thanks for sharing.
Glad to hear that there are more likeminded people out there gamifying life in their own way!
I am in the same page i will folllow your content
I like the idea of the blank interface, makes it simpler to start and a lot of fun. I'm going to use it to help me reach my goal of writing a book or two... or more! I love the little introduction character idea - Will there be a way for me to pull in, say, my books database? So that I can refer to which books I need to read as I progress through my sub-tasks to reach my Quest goal? I'm really looking forward to applying this system to help me achieve my goals. Also, Happy 30th Birthday coming up!
There won't be anything designed to link in other databases as part of your quests but you can make your own relation property that can link to the quests.
You've put a lot of work into that. I clicked on your sign up link, but it's coming back with an error. Not sure if it's on my end or the link is busted. Will you be integrating charts into 2.0? It would be great to see a visual representation of completed tasks in chart form. Just a thought.
How strange, it seems to be working when I have tested it again. To check, are you clicking the checkbox before submitting? As for charts, I am including a progress dashboard in the 2.0 that uses them to show progress you have made in various areas of your Real Life RPG journey!
@@destrola It took me to the page today. Weird. I have no idea. I've subscribed, so looking forward to seeing the finished product. :)
Love it, here before this blows up, keep making tutorials like this 🔥
Cheers man, appreciate the love!
Hey bro please make a tutorial on how to do this for us brokies 😂🥲
@@Jasonstav1211 There is a free version listed alongside the main offer should you want to try the system out (you can also reverse engineer it from that if you really want)
@@destrola Where's the free version? It doesn't show up on your website. I just want to know how to do the boss battles section. do you have any tutorials on how to do that?
@@gio.b8808 I am currently reworking the free version that will be on my site. When it comes to the boss battles however, the basis is that you have a bosses database that creates a rollup of your completed tasks within a time frame and from there counts them as damage to a set health pool. I may make a video of this in the future when I have refined the process!
@@destrola Oh ok, thanks. I was more so wondering on how to setup the health pool and incorporate the damage on completed tasks.
@@gio.b8808 they are all relational databases that talk to each other. You can get an understanding of how this works in this video I made: th-cam.com/video/Y9fabTbPrcM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=1oojDA7bNz_Z30J9
Been trying out your free version of the real Life RPG, honestly it is so good and I’m still a uni student so I’m too broke to get the full version, but honestly that demo is so good and has transformed my life this week that I’m using it that when I get the chance to support you I’ll definitely do so. Just finding out for the time being unable to get the full version, is there any limits to the free version?
@@Jayanimagic I love that you have been finding value in the system! The free version does have a level cap and slightly less features but will continue working as long as you want it to!
@@destrola I’ll definitely get it in the future, keep up the great work, it wont be long until you get more subs. Honestly haven’t seen such a good notion template before.
@@Jayanimagic that truely makes my day to hear your support 🧡
This sounds great. It’s something I’m looking forward to. I’m 57 and struggling with writing my novel. I have a Notion habit tracker and it’s helpful but not inspiring. I’m an avid role player so gamification seems like a great way to keep motivated. I have been following your videos over the past week and think you’re onto something. I’d like to see charts integrated into the system as I am a visual learner predominantly and more tactile in following things through. I’m really interested in learning more about your system and look forward to seeing more of your work and progress. It’s something I am keen to get set up in my day to day life. I help my wife run her business, I am writing a book, and I volunteer time with two organisations, so a system where I can act, track and visualise my successes will be helpful. Looking forward to the next series of videos and Version 2!
Well I am happy to have your support in this journey! I look forward to seeing your journey as well. 🧡
In terms of engagement. I find that I never get engagement unless I ask for engagement. I mostly use LinkedIn but whenever I ask a couple questions at the end up the post my engagement goes up over 50%. It might be worth adding a question and maybe even have it as text at the end of the video. Should help with engagement a bit. I also was thinking about something very interesting the other day. To level up your character or skills you need XP points. XP literally stand for Experience Points. Most people nowadays are trying to find shortcuts and cheat codes to level up instead of simply getting the experience. Many people will do whatever they can to avoid having to get experience when that's the only path that actually works! I would love to hear your thoughts on it! Great video man! Catch yah next time!
It's certainly an interesting perspective on the concept of experience points. I for one have definitely put a priority on the experiences in my life in more recent months and do find that my life has become much better for it!
@@destrola It's been very much the same thing for me recently! The largest change in my mindset has been whenever I do something that doesn't relate to gaining XP for my desired goals I can't help getting annoyed with myself for not doing the right things.
Best RPG life template i have found so far I started to improve and change few things to make it better to my needs One question though , does the game gives us a penalty if the due date is passed ? The idea would be to have a repeated quest , for example " Go to the gym" , repeated every 4 days. And for each day i'm late , it inflicts damages to my HP , and if possible fail the quest on the forth day ( because another one will have poped)
Firstly, I am very thankful for your support! As for the idea of penalties for past due tasks, I am currently working on the next update to the system and playing around with a new way to manage the tasks. At this stage there is no penalty but I will give the idea some thought and see if it will fit the ecosystem (or at least have it as an easier change for users such as yourself that want it).
@@destrola i am preparing you a email with thé changes that i made , the bugs i found , and my ideas of improuvment
Hi, I'm interested to know the changes you made to this template. Could you share them with me? I think it's a really good template but I feel like it's missing a few things to make it great @@loichsimon
I'm looking forward to discussing further the ideas of this RPG in the pathway we spoke of. 🎉
Did you sped up your video? At first, I got overwhelmed, but I found that I do not get distracted that much, but probably the 10 min is the limit, for such high speed speech. Also as the D&D player, you have my huge respect. Why? Because you seem to be a DM, and i know how much dedication and time it takes. Have a good night, or a good day, and a good life. All the Love, all the Power.
@@evgenivasileuski559 no speed up was used, that is simply just how I speak 😅 If needs be you can always run the video at 0.75x speed should my speaking be too quick. I also appreciate the kind words and likewise hope you have a lovely day!
Brother, I found the "Life RPG" way before this system. Reward points work like the time 60pts = 60min of instant gratification shit, like: games, yt, films, or even NSFW. The more educational the content was, the fewer points it used, for example: when I was learning the English, I did not deduct the points for the 3+ min vids, with English speech in them. Then the better my English became, the less was a discount. How to earn? The harder on the mind (Quest Rank system) and the more useful listed "improvement" activities are, the more points you get. They shat they pants, with the exp system. They made it like Pokémon Ultra Sun exp share system: all of the listed by you skills, in the task, get the same amount as the general level. I wish it was custom. Now I'm back to watching the vid, when I end watching I will comment my thoughts once again. Also if you find some grammar/punctuation mistakes, feel free to tell me. I'm still improving my English, so that will help me a lot.
I like it, and the way you decided to keep two states "todo" and "done" is also a good decision imho. Here is my like and subscribe

Keen eye, that was an error I only picked up in editing the video. The rest of the video where I build it again works fine though!
@@destrolaAh you are right! I'm curious with the boss feature. Is there any explanation about this already?
The basis of the boss is it counts the amount of tasks you have completed and retracts that from a set health value. There is also a whole other thing about when it dies you gain a lot more exp based on the tasks you completed.
it looks like for doing a project that we afraid to do, for example; have first public speaking meanwhile you lack communication skill, no experience, & have a phobia/stage fright. So the boss is our own fear. Is it like that?
I see the boss battles as a reminder of the larger goals you are working towards. If you want to face your fear of public speaking then that can absolutely be the boss you are working to beat!
Im trying to build my system and this helped my so much. My player database was getting errors for being so full of formulas to track the XP from my Projects, Tasks, Habits and all of that. Now I can scale the whole system. I tried using GPT to make the formulas but used more time debugging its formulas than actually making progress in my system. Thanks!!
I'm so glad to hear that you managed to make the progress in your system that you needed!

How are you going to provide updates for the notion template for current users?
The system itself does have an updates section at the bottom of the page that will provide future updates and info. The updates themselves will be in the form of a DLC like structure where you can just copy and paste the new sections to the system.
My main quest right now is reframing my mindset to what would be useful to not only myself but to as many people as possible. This has been a particular problem with my own notion templates in the past where they were so specifically created for me it was hard for anyone else to truly enter the mindset required to use it. The new template system I am working on has this primary goal in mind. I really love how this template came out! I would love to see a video on how this system prioritizes personal hobbies versus work projects. I believe it's important to take the time you needs for passion projects and I'm curious to see how your template prioritizes them.
Prioritisation is definitely one of the harder aspects in life especially when so many things are exciting. I will definitely be making a future video on this topic!
I think i might be getting this. The price is just right and a sub count doesnt mean anything for me, more after taking a deep dive into your website. I recently graduated from Multimedia Desgin so I feel more conected to your brand and knowing that someone that designs made the template makes me more confortable. Keep it up to the valuable content, you earned a sub and a sale! 🦾
Thankyou for the kind words and support, I hope I can continue to bring you the value that you are looking for!
i love the idea. Might be a bit pricey for most people considering your sub count. I would make a simpler version for free and then a more updated one for a reasonable price
Well we may think alike, after the first week sale is over I may have another free taster version for people to try out going live 😉
How long did it take you to becomea pro in notion
First off you are very kind to say I am a pro. I have been using notion for a few years now, but for this project most of the "pro" work was just many nights of adjusting it all until things started to work.
@@destrola Great thx. You are a pro common bro dont have to be so humble😁
I really love what you're doing with this system! I'm working on a similar system right now (I'm calling my template ADHD-RPG 😂 I can't wait to see more about this template! And I absolutely love this raw style of just going through and recording your ideas 🔥 Will your system include a good/bad habit tracker? In my system I call them lifetime quests and I'm having a rough time prioritizing them haha 😂
First off I want to thankyou for the kind words and support, it truly makes me feel I am on the right path 🧡 And good news, the system is now live and available to explore (my latest video at the date of writing this has the system walkthrough). The way I have implemented habits is by outlining three core ones you want to work on and should you not do them each day you lose health (which definitely has motivated me into doing them).
@@destrola Oh Awesome! Thanks for letting me know! I'll go check it out right now! And I really like that system of prioritization! It seems like a good way to avoid doing too many things at the same time.
Hey, do you think it would be useful to earn Materials on top of Gold from Quests? So you can Craft stuff. For Example: If you went to the gym, you gain Healthshards and you can craft a Beer Round with your Friends from Healthshards. So you find your Balance in the Party and Health area of your life ?
I do love this idea, in fact I was starting to build an aspect like this but realised that it did move away from the simplicity that I found people were asking for. With the launch it does make it hard to add this aspect in now that people already have their hands on it but if there is enough interest I can definitely show a video of how to add this feature!
As long as you're not losing functionality, simplifying things is always good 👍🏻
Well I certainly aim to keep the complexity of the system but simplify the way people interact with it!
How to get access
If you sign up via the link in the description you will be alerted over the next few weeks for when it is available!
love the aesthetics and system! Glad youtube recommended this
Well I'm glad that you are here for the journey!
Looking forward to this. I've been using the app LifeRPG but it's getting to a point where it's limiting me, so I'm looking for inspiration to create my own system. Great series 👍🏻
Well I'm glad to hear you have enjoyed the series, hopefully I can help you with getting the exact inspiration you need for your system!
