Have you experience defeats and failures in life, sometimes traumatic ones?

Defeats are always difficult to swallow. Human instinct is to want to win. Losing means we have failed to achieve what we wanted to, on top of that losing damages pride and ego, components present in most human beings.

It is important to learn to accept defeat gracefully. That is not to say we should not strive to win. But once defeat becomes reality, being graceful about it will win one many friends as well as earn the respect of others. Nobody likes sore losers.

In life, nobody wins all the time. Realising and accepting this fact probably makes it a little easier to cope with defeat. Be sure to bounce back stronger the next time.

Remember. in life, you win some, you lose some.
