Category Archives: Self-Gamification

Self-gamification is the application of game design elements to one’s own life.
Self-gamification is a self-help approach showing you how to be playful and gameful.
In self-gamification, you are both the designer AND the player of your games.

Introducing Self-Gamification: A Blog Post Series

On May 31, 2018, I have published an online course on a self-help approach I call Self-Gamification.

There are a number of videos in this course available for free preview. Some of you might have seen the promotional video on social media. If not, then scroll down to the bottom of this post.

I would like to make all those free video’s available to the readers of this blog. And I start with the introductory video which explains one of the reasons why I created this course.

I hope to post all free videos until the end of June, the official launching month of this course. There are more than ten of these free videos, and they give a good idea what the course is about. So there will be a video each couple of days. I hope you enjoy them.

The First Online Course on Self-Gamification Went Live Today

Dear friends,
Self-Gamification (#SelfGamification) is now officially born. 🙂

There is now an online course with the title:
Motivate Yourself by Turning Your Life into Fun Games
and subtitle:
Practice Self-Gamification, a Unique Self-Help Approach Uniting Anthropology, Kaizen, and Gamification
https://www.udemy.com/motivate-yourself-by-turning-your-life-into-fun-games/learn/v4/overview

A little backstory: 46 days ago, I entered Udemy’s (the largest platform for online courses) challenge to create an online course on a topic I am passionate about within 45 days. This challenge was for new instructors. I picked Self-#Gamification of course. I’ve taught it twice live before and interest in this approach was continually growing on LinkedIn. That is why I decided to enter the challenge and pick the topic. It was the first time in my life that I created a video course, and the learning curve was quite steep. 🙂 Both an exciting and scary process. I practiced all three skill sets the self-gamification unites a lot during the process! 😀

And yesterday, just about two hours before the deadline the course went live on the Udemy’s marketplace.

Huge thanks to all who helped and supported me along the way during this challenge. And to the inventors and masters of those three methods self-gamification unites! Without you, your books and what you do there wouldn’t be this course.

You can check out the description, a promo video, and eleven preview videos (the whole intro section and at least one video in each other section) of the course above (link or picture) and here:

P.S. Udemy offers it right now and for five more days, for only 10.99USD (that’s 93% off). It’s a great price, and I wanted to share this information with you.

The Story Behind Self-Gamification

I turn my life into games since two years. During these two years, deliberately. Now I realize that I applied game-design principles also before to my life, but unbeknown to me until now. Since the last half a year, I gamify all areas of my life and have immense fun with it.

When I first heard of the word gamification, I was sure I would find someone doing what I do, or at least someone, who was wondering, as I was, whether we could turn all activities including those we think we don’t like doing into fun occupations. But I didn’t.

I also couldn’t find another non-gamer writing about gamification.

Now, as the interest to my method – which brings three established approaches into one strong synergy – grows, I think I should share the story that led me to develop this approach, which I call self-gamification.

This story will be the second chapter of my future book Self-Gamification: Turn Your Life into a Fun Game.
