When does a loser get to know that he is a loser indeed, or does he ever get to know that. I have been thinking about it and this is what I could find online. Didn't help my cause in any way.

There used to be a time when I was a child and like any other child I totally detested even the thought of losing. I could not accept defeat in even the most trivial of situations and would often end up in tears when I lost. But then came a time when I didnt mind a failure or two. Infact I needed an ocassional failure to keep me fired up and perform when it mattered the most. I used to enjoy those small and sometimes big failures becoz I was always confident that I can pull it off when it mattered the most. And when I got to know that IBM celebrates a "Day of Failures", I was totally excited about it. I beleived that failures teach you more about life than successes.
But now I find myself in a rather strange (and pretty annoying) situation where failures dont seem to bother me at all. They dont seem to spur me on as they used to earlier. I dont seem to get bogged down with them either. I dont understand where I am headed. Is this what it takes to be a real loser ???????
I am terribly confused. Please help me if you can.
