Win as if you were used to it, lose as if you enjoyed it for a change.

I tell you, deep inside you is a fountain of bliss, a fountain of joy. Deep inside your center core is truth, light, love, there is no guilt there, there is no fear there. Psychologists have never looked deep enough.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
