Winning and losing...

Winning is wonderful, it's what we aspire to do... but there's a lot to be learned from losing as well. Life is about learning and learning came be done in success and also defeat. There's a grace involved in both scenarios and both are necessary in life. You need to learn how to win as much as you need to learn how to lose. If both are necessary, is winning very important? The simple answer is no.

Character is revealed during hardship not bliss. Anyone can live an easy life, it's much harder to stay focused and upbeat during the rough patches... and yes they are just patches. Things do and will get better.

If winning is really important to you, focus on the real competitions in life. Fight to be the best person you can be. Compete to raise the best children you can have. Be a loving husband...

Life consists of battles and some you won't win. Never focus on the battles, focus on the war. Sometimes the path to achieving our goals have stumbling points. Accomplish your goals. Obstacles are just distraction and temporary. Stay focused and learn from your mistakes. We all make mistakes. We all lose at times. Stay positive.

A loss is never a loss is we use it as a stepping stone to a future win. Keep fighting, stay focused, and always remember to smile. Life is never that bad...
