Would you rather be a person who loves to win?

or 

Would you rather be a person who hates to lose? 

Bonus question: You can respond with what you actually think you are, in addition to which one you'd like to be. 

Definitely in the loves to win camp, but it’s more enjoying the win as I was raised to accept the fact your value is not the win but rather the grace exhibited in defeat.  So - makes the most of the wins and try to cultivate positives in the losses.  In the weekly men’s group event I’ve shared in the pot some, but more times than not I haven’t.  We are only talking a few bucks - so it’s not a life changing event.

In golf, I love to win.
 

In every other sport, I hate to lose, and it is an awful way to play since it leads to burnout. I played collegiate tennis and went 28-9 my freshman year. I can tell you about every one of those lost matches and I am 60 years old.i quit after my sophomore year and didn’t play again, at least competitively, until I was 48!
