“If you lose, be patient. If you win, stay humble”

“If you lose, be patient. If you win, stay humble” is an inspirational saying that has been printed on many images. “If you win stay humble, if you lose, put your head down and figure out how to do better next time” was printed in the Des Moines (IA) Register on March 20, 2009. “When you win be humble. When you lose be patient” was posted on Twitter by Dwight Gunning on March 5, 2010.

If you lose, be patient; if you win, be humble!
Right from school, we are taught that Success and Failure are opposites. But as we grow up, we realize that failure is an important step before achieving success. In fact, failure, or rather the lessons that we learn from failure, form an important part of the journey to success.
