On the campaign trail, one of President Trump’s favorite rallying calls was that under his watch, America was going to “start winning again.” A quick survey of his Twitter account will reveal that calling his opponents “losers” is one of his favorite— and, in his eyes, most damning— insults. Trump, it seems, is obsessed with winning.
But is losing all that bad of a thing? I don’t think so. At least, I hope not. I’ll be the first to admit it— I have done a lot of losing in my life. That is not to say that I consider myself a failure, or even that I have a Hollywood-worthy rags-to-riches story.
