"Win as if you are used to it, lose as if you enjoyed it for a change." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Win as if you are used to it, lose as if you enjoyed it for a change." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

This is a more profound message than it looks on the surface.  Most of us win a lot more than we lose and mostly take it for granted rather than celebrating our wins.  The enjoyment of losing seems like an impossibility.  I wonder if we celebrated our losses rather than grieving for them, it would speed up the process of moving forward?  [Russell]
