NO END

No matter how big a defeat is, it is always temporary. With better planning, it can become a victory. In this world, everything is temporary, including defeat. No defeat is permanent.

After losing, a person has two choices. One is to lose courage and remain disheartened after the battle. The other is to reflect on why they lost, identifying the reasons for the opponent’s victory and their own defeat.

This second approach broadens a person’s mind. It allows them to take action again with improved preparation. And someone who follows this method may not succeed the first time, but they will definitely succeed on the second attempt.

In this world, failure is closely tied to success, and success is connected with failure. When someone fails, a new determination sparks within them to try again. New parts of their mind become active. Conversely, a person who has succeeded often becomes stagnant. They fall into complacency and rest.

In this way, defeat becomes a reason for new life for the one who loses, while victory puts the winner to sleep, depriving them of life. If a person understands this reality, they will never be hopeless. They will never become discouraged after failure, no matter how significant the failure may seem.

This world is a game of winning after losing and losing after winning. In this world, the successful player is the one who focuses on the game rather than getting distracted by winning or losing.

Defeat is only a temporary setback, not a permanent loss. It takes away external things, but it doesn’t take away what’s inside you. You can use what’s within to find new success again.
