Is Winning Everything? Winning isn't everything. Even if you do win a championship and you or your team is celebrating and yelling. That doesn’t mean anything. Losing can teach you something too, but even if you don't agree with me you could learn something from losing. Have you ever lost before? You know how it feels especially during some huge sports event. You're probably asking “Why the heck does he think winning isn't everything? Of course it is!” I believe that Winning isn't everything.

The first reason I disagree trying your best during a game. Even if you lose at least you gave it your all. It is a good feeling when you win but at least you weren't the lazy guy who would just stand there and do nothing! Now thats a lose! You're in a situation in a basketball game 1v1 you have the ball but you suddenly made a mistake and gave the ball up. Now that must feel embarrassing and your coach is screaming at you angrily but you did your hardest, especially during this situation. According to Imelda Staunton quote “ You can only do your best. That's all you can do. And if it isn't good enough, it isn't good enough” this quote means even if you didn’t do good enough it just isn't good enough and wants you to do it again but better. Winning can be amazing, but trying your best is even bigger then winning

The second is learning from your mistakes. No matter how much you lose and how many times you lose you learn from the lose. For example when I was playing against FHCD we lost 1-6 but since they were so much better than us we watched and learned from them. This was a good experience even though we did lose against them. Everyone makes mistakes, not almost but all and you know that all famous sport players mess up. These mess ups can benefit you because like all teachers say “mistakes can help you.” According to Rick Warren's quote “We are products of our past, but we don't have to be prisoners of it.” means how many losses they had you just can't keep thinking about your lose, learn from it. Mistakes are bad in certain in situations but it can also be a good thing.

My last reason is losing can embrace you or make you try harder. “During a game the Giants lose against the Raiders but last game the Giants made a huge comeback!” Even if this is a made up story that might be true but this is an example of losing can make you try harder. During my lacrosse game against Rutgers Prep we were disappointed when we lose but when we played them against but this lose fired us up and we played them again and got a better score, but we still lose. Losing can be good for you when you see the scoreboard 81-84 and lose now you know how their players play and can always learn the others team disadvantages and know your disadvantages. Just like healthy food is good for you losing is also good for you.

Even though some people say that winning is everything, but its not really winning. Even if you do lose a game there is no reason to kill yourself just because you lost. All of your loses means someone and can benefit you. Most of all its just important to try yourself and think outside of the box, and try to win. Even though people love to win and always wants to win, but its not a big deal.
