Patrick Bet-David explores how winning inflates your self-image while losing deflates it. He connects this to Marcus Aurelius having a slave remind him he was just a man, and argues that staying humble through both success and failure is what separates people who win once from people who keep winning.
One of your quotes is, when you're winning, you're not as good as you think you are. When you're losing, you're not as bad as you think you are.
What's that mean to you? When you're winning, everybody is telling you how amazing you are. You're the best. You're amazing. You know, you're just better than that guy and you better than this guy. And it always takes me back to that quote of Marcus Aurelius, who had a slave that would sit behind him and always whisper to him, hey, You're just a man. You're just a man.
You're just a man. That's right, 40 Laws of Power. TBD is a beast. I think when you are doing well in life, someone's coming after you. I think I've always tried to do a good job of being like, I'm just a dude who pushed a bunch of insurance. Um, and I know on the, on the flip side of it, there were times when I was doing bad and I thought I was doing really bad. I mean, I've, I've learned that we make a bigger deal out of our failures or mistakes or hard times. We probably beat ourselves up more than we need to. So it's a good quote. I'll, I'll remember and share that one a bunch more.
