What Pacman says about you.

You can learn a lot from watching somebody play Pacman.

There are various techniques to chase those little dots, which reveal a person's character.

A beginner is terrified, those little ghosts are chasing you and there is nowhere to hide. They panic, they dawdle and they fail.

There are those who set about it efficiently, with nothing but the aim of the game in mind. You have to eat all the dots, and so that is what they do. They find the most effective route to get the most dots possible, if they are lucky they succeed. But they haven't thought about their final score. The best they can do will be satisfactory.

To truly succeed at Pacaman, you must think about what happens once the tables are turned. Eat all the ghosts and the score will soar, you will quickly find that the other dots get eaten anyway. Aim for something incredible and you will easily surpass satisfactory.

The same is true of life. There are those who panic when faced by the pressure (I have even seen people play it with their eyes closed). There are those who seek to get the job done, nothing more. And there are the opportunistic few, who are prepared to take a risk when they smell success.

That is why I shall be putting my Pacman score on my C.V.
