Winning & Losing

Winning is Fun... Sure                                                                                  

But Winning is not the Point

Wanting to win is the Point

Not giving up is the Point


As a human in this world, we all have competitions. Competitions can be something like a music concert or something, but also competing with others to reach an aim. 

I've seen many students (as a student myself) who don't participate in the fear that they will lose. The truth is that we all are not perfect. We may lose but we learn from our mistakes. I've taken part in many competitions. But I've only succeeded in 1 or 2. 

But I still go. Why? Because when we make mistakes we learn something new. We have to try to win, but if we don't it's totally fine. I also believe that if we try hard enough we can achieve; try, try, try. I  have been trying out for the post in our student leadership team, for about 3 years now; I had never gotten in. I went again this year; showing the judges/teacher's that I will try till I never can. I guess that is why I did get a position, even though most of my answers about our school were wrong. (Kinda like how many clinics, how many special educators)

I'm pretty sure your parents might've already told you this but still: Winning isn't what matters; It's whether you participate or not. 

When we participate, we learn from others. We can identify our strengths and weakness in that area. We can compare (in a positive way) on what others did, or what the winner might've added in their work to get the prize. 

These are some stuff that I did. Participate; and you may even find your strengths and talents that are buried deep within you. 

Remember, anything is possible in this world. You can be what you want, you can do what you want to. So today, as I said in the first chapter, go to the mirror, look into those beautiful eyes and say: I can do it!

Then say it again, a little louder, for those existing consciences in the back of your head.

You're Awesome!!  Don't let other's get you down.
