“I hate losing more than I love winning”
— Venus Williams
Simplified Meaning:
Some people feel more upset when they lose than they feel happy when they win. Think about a student who studies very hard for a test. If they get a high score, they feel good for a little while. But if they fail, they feel sad for a long time, and maybe even think about what went wrong over and over again. This shows that losing has a bigger emotional impact on them than winning does. In everyday life, this can push someone to try harder and prepare better because they really don’t want to experience the pain of losing. It’s like how an athlete might train extra hard because they are more scared of the disappointment of losing than they are excited about the joy of winning.
