Whenever I am proved wrong or outdone I feel upset. How do I feel happy for the !


Question: It might help to visualize being that person for a moment, and to imagine how you would like others to feel toward and about you.

Once you have a handle on how that looks and feels, it might be easier for you to react (at least publicly) with grace and good cheer. Your positive reaction will likely result in good vibes coming back at you, and it will get easier.

There is nothing wrong with feeling and acknowledging your disappointment; it's just better to avoid letting it get the best of you.

I always try my best to remember that happiness and love never divide-- they multiply, so there's always plenty to go around!

use it for a starting point and do better the next time, view it as a challenge....

Being a good loser is important. You have to suck it up and congratulate the person and accept they did better than you. But there's always next time so if you don't want to lose again you have to work harder.

you must think that that person is good, but you did not give your full effort so you lost to him.hope this helps!!!your he man//gal!!

It is natural to feel upset when you don't get the result you hoped for. It is called frustration. A wise person once said "Experience is what you get when you don't get what you want." I think CH said it best about what you can do.

Every loves a good sport (a loser that can politely acknowledge the winner's win).

It's hardest to lose when you know you weren't on your game or you didn't give it your best. It's a lot easier to congratulate someone who amazed you at the same time they outdid you. It's okay to speak the truth along with the congratulations, something like: "Congratulations! You beat me! Dam, I hate that!" say it with a big smile and a big handshake and offer to buy them a beer/water/whatever and congratulate them again and tell them they'd better practice hard cuz you're going to mop the floor with them next time. You can end up with a great friend just being honest but being gracious and considerate of other people's feelings.

Try not to fool yourself - you may never feel happy for the person who was right or who won, however; you can come to the realization that no one wins all the time and this may help you to come to terms with being proved wrong or losing.

I know how you feel, especially if I really think I am right. But, if proven wrong, I can accept that. I may not always like it but I can take it. I do not believe than any of us like being wrong.

It sounds like you may be a very competitive person and that makes up prone to being upset when we lose. But, with time just think how good you feel when you win a battle and the other person is probably feeling as bad as you did when you lost. So, I think we need to put ourselves on the other side.

I was not sure if you meant in an argument or game setting? I think when a point is proven to be correct, it does not mean there was necessarily a right or wrong. Sometimes, it is just a matter of facts and none us have the correct facts right all of the time. Not even me,,,,but most of the time I do..

I know you will think it ridiculous but we really do have to accept the losses with the wins. It is just as important to be a good sport and you will feel better about yourself and be more respected. It is better to laugh at ourselves than to have someone laugh at us.........lol I am right this time!!!
