Winning is not everything - but making the effort to win was... If you can't accept losing, you can't win.
I simply don't accept losing well. I just feel whatever it takes to win, you have to do it.
I wouldn't accept losing as a team, wouldn't accept losing as my team. It's like a war every practice. I think it helped us a lot.
Both fighters can't win in this sport, so you have to leave it in God's hands. Losing is not the end of the world. Losing is natural; the better-prepared athlete will win.
There is always disappointment, heartache. You are losing almost every tournament. You need to just accept it and be positive because you are going to lose and fail. We're not all Nadal or Djokovic, who can win most tournaments.
It may sound simple, but both winning and losing can become a mind-set, and I won't accept losing - ever.
When you have this desire to win, to win, to win, I would not feel comfortable losing a title.
When you win and the other fellow loses, what do you see? A losing face. There is great joy in losing and making the other person win and have a happy face. Who will be the happiest person? The one who brings happiness to others.
I can deal with losing as long as one is trying to win. If you're losing, and you're not trying to win, that is not fair.
If you win the turnover battle and the explosive play battle in the same game, you win it 98 percent of the time. Now, can you win it with only winning one and losing one? Sure, but if you lose both of 'em, you only win 2 percent of the games where that occurrence happens.
When you're winning, you're a hero. When you're losing, you're a bum... I'm as bad as the fans, believe me. If they only knew how I hate losing and what we go through to try to win.
As a professional, you're taught from a young age to despise losing. But I began to accept that, in football, you will win some games, and you will lose some games, with draws here and there, too. That's just the nature of the game.
There are many people in athletics who only know losing. Their team never wins they only know losing and therefore nobody on their team really understands - they're all trying to win, but it's a select few who know how. And Donald Trump is one. He does know how to win.
I have just accepted certain things and it makes it easier. I accept I will get injured. I accept I cannot win every race. I work hard to decrease the chances of those things happening but I accept they will happen. A lot of people don't accept it. They get injured, they go crazy.
Sometimes, you don't have to win, you cannot win. but that has nothing to do with losing.
Losing one grounds you a bit. I learned a lot after losing the title in 2009, learned that I was probably too intense that year, and when I didn't win, I just felt horrible.
