I'm not sure it "changed my life", but in my job (Air Traffic Control), there are times I have to work nonstop while traffic piles up. I feel like most other people would be overwhelmed and view the situation as hopeless and give up.
There was a game that I played on my phone which I feel helped prepare me for that experience.
It's called Twenty (by Stephen French). It's a race against the machine to get rid of blocks while rows of blocks are added to the playing field in ever-decreasing intervals.
You have to learn to work faster and faster without making mistakes in order to get a high score. In Air Traffic Control, you have to learn to work faster and faster without making mistakes in order to keep the flying public safe.
Where I think others would view my job as stressful, I view it as a challenge to master.
