I have been hearing about this for a while now, and once I understood its perspective, I saw another dimension of life. When we were children, we were told to get good marks in exams, top the class, and rank with other students. But as we grew, we realised that our real race is not with others but with ourselves. We realise that there is no race at all; it is all about our mindset. Before we even think about others and their competition, we need to make up our minds, which is one of the toughest things to do. In childhood, I was always afraid of challenges, so I never participated in anything. As an adult, I am a totally different person. I like challenges because they allow me to grow and develop my capabilities. There is nothing in life that is still for us to grow; we need to be uncomfortable and take up challenges. When I realised that the winner actually loses more than the loser, goosebumps ran up my spine. It’s true, if we want to do something, we have to do it irrespective of whether it’s going to happen or not. Because if we are doing nothing, nothing is going to happen, so why not be true to do something and lose rather than lose something while not even trying. I feel like people who are winners have more story than people who haven’t even tried. We always think that it is all about winning and losing, and at a certain point, it is; however, there is so much in life which shouldn’t be categorised. Like learning, growing, accepting, sadness, happiness, uncomfortable truths, and many more. This is all it takes for one to reach a goal.
Winner – a small word, but a lot goes into being able to use it. To be a winner, one goes through a lot of losses to actually reach that step. A winner sacrifices a lot, loses a lot, but in the end the winner takes it alllllllllll.
Till we meet again, Be Happy, Be Grateful, and Keep Smiling – a girl who likes to write.
