Believe You Are The Winner

American author W. Somerset Maugham wrote that a funny thing about life is the fact that, if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it.

Aren't these comforting words to remember when we feel discouraged, ready to give up? We start a project, we make a plan, we undertake a treatment and, when we don't see the results we wish for, we give up and accept whatever comes along, which is usually well below our expectations. What to do? Persevere, try again, try in a different way, don't lose hope. Believe you are a winner, never a loser.
