Can you win if you cannot lose?

Why bother reading this? Because it'll give you kickass advice.

Think about it for a second.

Every body wants to win in life, and they prefer to do it without failing.
Because, when you fail you are a loser, and everybody will laugh at you.
You will become an outcast, and will never be accepted by the group.

I hope you understand my synicism about failing.

Even though it is not like as I described above, many people do treat there lives that way.
Afraid of taking risks, and most off all, afraid of failing, because failing is bad.

But can you win if you cannot lose?

What if you could only win, would it then still feel like a victory?
They great victories in life are not the ones who come easily, and without effort.
The great victories in life come through a situation where there is a great chance you will fail,
and this also helps really good: ''If the odds are against you''.

I really love that saying, because that always gives me even greater motivation to succeed.

'' Do you dare to go left when everybody is going right? ''

If you like your life the way it is now, then please just keep doing what your are doing and don't waste your time on reading this blog.

But if you want to get ahead in a certain area of your life, you have to go to work on it and sometimes that means taking risk.

You don't learn to swim by reading books about it, if you want to learn how to swim, you have to get into the water.

Every time when somebody tells me their hopes and dreams, I always respond with: '' Allright, go and do it''.
And there hasn't been a single person who did not came up with an excuse why they couldn't do it.

If you really want something, you will find a way.

'' The bigger the WHY, the easier the HOW''.

So here is what you could do to get yourself started:

Define what you want.
Define how bad you want it (rate it 1 to 10)
And last, determine how much pain you will feel, if you did not the best you could possibly do to reach that goal.
As always,

Some will, some won't.

'' Are you a sheep, or do you lead sheep? ''

Have a wonderful week.
