It is the final seconds of the game and suddenly the one team scores leading to the other team losing the championship. In almost every sport or competition there is always “a winner” and “a loser” but maybe there is a way that both teams win. There could be a lesson learned from the loss, learning to accept a loss with dignity and respect, and learning to be happy when others succeed.

After the loss of a competition, there is always a way someone can improve themselves by learning from others success and follow their footsteps. For example when a football team wins the super bowl, other teams will gather footage of plays and moves they preformed. With these materials a player can better ready themselves by learning and mastering skills of teams that have been successful in the past. In the end, both teams win a way.

Learning to accept a defeat with dignity and respect is difficult to perform because one thinks very highly of oneself until they have been beaten. For one to display dignity after a loss and still show good sportsmanship toward the other team sets an example for others. This is a perfect example of being a role model and showing how one should conduct oneself after a loss. In the end, both sides win in a way.

Being happy for another ones success is an even harder task to develop and master. If one can learn to be happy for others in their successes they will more than likely be happy for that individual in the future and may even help them reach their goals. In turn, everybody is happy and in the end, both people win in a way.

Even though one may lose, that does not mean that they lose in every way. There could be a lesson learned from the loss, learning to accept a loss with dignity and respect, and learning to be happy when others succeed. When one looks at the big picture of everything everyone wins in a way.
