"Fortune lost, nothing lost; courage lost, much lost; honour lost, more lost; soul lost, all lost."
- Dutch Proverb

For some people and in some situations, it is difficult to pick up the pieces after a loss or after hearing no time and time again. Losing should motivate and provide the drive to win (at the same thing/same area or in a different area).

Song lesson: 'Lose To Win' by Fantasia Barrino

"Sometimes you gotta lose to win again."

"Success is almost totally dependent upon drive and persistence. The extra energy required to make another effort or try another approach is the secret if winning."
- Denis Waitley

"To win you need to have first lost. That makes you so hungry to win that you'll do everything you can to achieve it."
- Brendon Clark

Michael Jordan: I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times,  I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.

Losing is not a waste. Sometimes a person must lose to win. Losing can lead to a string of wins and achievements.

"Winning is great, sure, but if you are really going to do something in life, the secret is learning how to lose. Nobody goes undefeated all the time. If you can pick up after a crushing defeat, and go on to win again, you are going to be a champion someday."
- Wilma Rudolph

"You win some, you lose some, you wreck some."
- Dale Earnhardt
