Winners -vs- Losers
How important is a Winner. Ask a Loser. After all you cannot have a winner unless there is a loser. It is much the same as for every up there is a down, for every left there is a right, for every right there is a wrong, and for every good there is a bad, and so on.
If someone wins, someone loses. If nobody plays you cannot have a winner nor can you have a loser. Think about that the next time you head into your next day.
There are some of us who can see the "Shades of Gray", meaning that everything is not black and white, there are shades of gray.
So in sports it is taught that we have to learn to be good losers as well as we appreciate winning. In life it is much the same way, we have to learn to be good at not doing so well in the face of those that do.
There is nothing wrong with not "winning" all of the time as long at you are comfortable with who you are, and the loss is not devastating to your well being. As long as you are doing well, accept any loss as a stepping stone to your destination, and use it as a learning tool, to help you be a better person.
