I don't think I would be wrong to call everyone reading this piece a gambler, you want to know why? Kindly read through to the end as you are going to make a discovery you are always not interested in finding.
I admires gamblers a lot, in fact, I bet sometimes with money– money I am not afraid to risk by the way. Have you entered a draw, you are a gamble too. Interestingly, Gamblers aren't afraid of losing something, they are just after winning. They don't care, each time gamblers visit a casino, when they lose a bet, they double the next, if they lose, they double it again until they win and that final win is always very Big.
I am not advertising Betting or making Gambling sound like a good deal, in fact I will advise you against it if you are prone to addiction but there are lessons to actually learn from this sect. They are never afraid of losing and truth be told, you're prone lose what you are afraid of letting go.
Imagine if everyone could chase success like a gambler, we all be big winners. Taking the risk to lose doesn't mean a disaster will happen, it just gives you an opportunity to do better. In our business, our career, academics or even our relationships, why are we scared of losing? What feeling are we not ready to let go?
Because you lost your self-esteem, self confidence doesn't end the world. Because someone who you thought was way below you doesn't respect because they are now better than you doesn't mean you have lost, sometimes we don't know the peace we have when we lose something. You lost a very nice family member, you can't replace tgem, but it doesn't end, find another one. It's our decision, we can't just wait there doing nothing. *Losing means you replace with something better.*
Sometimes, losing could bring happiness, showing the realities that we couldn't phantom. The space some of things we held on to; the mistakes, our past, target we missed, Vulnerabilities we should just be let go. Giving room for us to think through about our existence and give ourselves a purpose for living. Losing is great, you learn more from it than winning.
No wins today and study the strategy of the loser, but we will if we had lost. If you don't lose today, you can always trust to win tomorrow, every lawyer has lost a case, in fact, for us to have winners in life, people have to lose. The _"fear of missing out"_ shouldn't bring us down, we should just take risk and likewise take responsibility for it too.
