While we were enjoying our turkey and getting a head start on shopping for the holidays, fellow local bloggers brought to our attention a new board game we can get our friends for Christmas: Your Best Life Now: The Game. Why buy the game of Life when you can buy Your Best Life Now, right? Hmm.

The board game takes you through "The 7 Steps to Living at Your Full Potential." Our favorite is Level 2: Develop a Healthy Self Image. On this level, you have 15 seconds to look into a mirror (included with the game) and make positive statements about yourself. Wow – where’s Stuart Smalley when you need him?

The first person to reach Level 7: Tomorrow, wins the game. If you’re not that person, we guess you'll have to wait for the next round to try to reach your potential. (Loser.)

While Houstonist understands the need for messages like Osteen’s, we just think the whole board game idea is sort of creepy. However, religious games have been around for over a hundred years. You can purchase religious versions of Pictionary, Bible Trivia, and a game based on the Left Behind series.

We wonder if there’s a spot on the board that will make you lose a turn if your spouse has an altercation with a flight attendant?
