Each category invites the player to grow in a different area. Some cards ask players to share fond or important memories, prompting players to share about past victories and lessons learned. Some cards are action based, requiring you to do something right now, either alone or as a group. Others are thought exercises that let the players open their minds and consider new perspectives. Action cards ask the player to commit to real world action and find accountability partners in the group, to stay in touch after the game and ensure you follow through. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e Sometimes only the player that drew the card can take the action and score points, but often all players are invited to join in if they wish.
