Losing is the greatest enemy in a person's life.
When you want to win too much and are too focused on gains and losses, you will constantly fixate on the goal, overthinking it, worrying about gains and losses, and unwittingly invest huge sunk costs.
This sunk cost will further interfere with your thoughts, making you weigh options endlessly and hesitate when making decisions. Then, when you can no longer delay, you make a rash decision, ultimately losing everything.
This mindset not only makes failure more likely but also comes with an additional side effect: after failing, you may find it hard to recover, and your energy diminishes.
So, what is the correct way to approach this?
It is to not fear losing. So what if you lose? The path will still have its ups and downs, and you can still make a comeback.
