Benefit of learning Weiqi (圍棋)

1)   It   teaches   you   how   to   think,   at   different   levels   of   abstraction.

2)   It   teaches   you   how   to   solve   multiple   problems   at   the   same   time,   not   one   problem   at   a   time.

3)   It   teaches   you   how   to   set   goals   and   achieve   them.

4)   It   teaches   you   how   to   adjust   and   balance   when   your   goals   can 't   be   achieved.

5)   It   teaches   you   how   to   plan   your   life   ahead,   not   just   make   one   move   at   a   time.

6)   It   teaches   you   how   to   consider   other   people.   You   will   be   punished   if   you 're   too   aggressive   when   dealing   with   other   people,   you   will   suffer   if   you 're   not   fighting   hard   enough   for   your   rights.

Once   you   can   do   all   these   on   Weiqi   board,   apply   them   to   real   life,   then   you 're   mature   enough.
