Little surprises again ;)

Hello everyone !    

Welcome to a new opus from the JJV Offs!

  In Vaison we don't like board games ...  

Before opening the store four years ago, I was advised to do a "define your business plan" workshop.  

 I do like all the other candidates for a business opening, and I tell about my plan to open a store selling board games in Vaison.    

The business advisor tells me that my project is doomed to failure and that board games cannot work in Vaison and its surroundings ...  

 She even adds that the daughter of a friend of hers tried to get a license and a room back in Vaison, but was refused.

  It chilled me a bit at the time ...  

But I struggled to open the store and start this wonderful adventure which continues for another 3 and a half years later thanks to you ;)  

 Her friend's daughter ended up finding a place in Vaison and I wish her to continue working in spite of everything ...  

If you believe in your project, try ... It is better to have remorse than regret. :)  

If I had let myself be demoralized and given up by then, we would not have shared those beautiful playful years ...  

 So if you follow me again and again in the fun adventure, I intend to accompany you there for a while;)  

Good day and good game ;)

Hello everyone !

Welcome to a new opus from the JJV Offs!

In case of failure, checkmate!

It is now 30 years ago that I learned one of the best lessons in life thanks to my grandfather…

While he was teaching me to play chess, I did not understand why all the strategies I tried did not succeed.

I got more and more discouraged with each loss, but already at 4 years old, I was determined to understand what had gone wrong with my strategy to evolve it and try to win.

With a lot of patience and kindness, my grandfather explained to me why I was losing with each new strategy.

As time went by, I progressed and ended up beating him when I was 5 years old.

I will never forget what he said to me then that day:

“For every problem there is a reasonable solution. It isn’t always easy to find, but with determination one always ends up achieving a resolution."

This wise phrase from my grandfather still follows me today ...

Of course, I failed many times, but I did not stay on failures.

I realized that my mistakes taught me a lot more than if I had done everything before.

There are no failures for those who know how to learn, but tries leading to a goal ...

Have a good day and have a good game;)
