I looked at losses as an opportunity to improve. I'll review the game, find my mistakes, and learn how to avoid them in the future. So when I lost at Crazy 8s I'd study. Just joking! I honestly don't care about Crazy 8s that much to study my losses. What am I trying to go pro??
I eventually realized that this applied to every game. I'm not going to be a pro chess player. I'm not going to be a pro bowler. I don't care that much to put the time and effort into studying and training the intricacies of Counter Strike. I'm just trying to have fun! That's when losing stopped bothering me so much.
