The True Skill Of A Winner

October 2, 2023 by SUMMER LOTUS 2 Comments

1st October 2023. 1 min read

In times of trouble

Don’t let your anger or fear bubble

Keep your wits around you

Let not your anxiety stew

It’s not the money that you amass

Nor the beauty that you possess

But when beset with stress

It’s the ability to decompress

That’s the mark of maturity

Only you will find in you, an inner security

For the true winner can keep his calm

And nothing can cause him alarm

Instead he looks for hints of light

That would make his choices bright

He tackles smoothly any calamity

And alleviate even overcome his adversity

But the true winner has one more trait

He never fail to smile through it

His coolness makes others wonder

Does he ever ever flounder?

    That is a very beautiful poem indeed composed spontaneously from the bottom of your heart , in a way describing yourself and the experience and maturity you have acquired and gained thro the years , never succumbing to storms and challenges you face in life.
    And as you surmounted the challenges you faced , onward moving forward to another beautiful day ahead with confidence and poise for there is nothing to fear except fear itself. That is the mark of a true blue warrior, yet benevolent and kind , signifying THE TRUE SKILL OF A WINNER.

    Of course, as an imperfect human , one can still flounder but it is how fast that person picks himself/herself up, that matters and move on with renewed vigour and determination relentlessly and this differentiate himself/herself from the mediocre, to achieve victory and success as the person’s final goal by putting on his/her best effort.

    And to top it all, you always wear a smile on your face, no matter how challenging the situation it. That is the trait of a true winner.

    For you are aware that laughter is the best medicine, because a merry heart is indeed good natural medicine , conversely a bitter heart will cause oestroporesis.
