Default Re: How can I learn how to handle losing better?

While I like bernie's answer a lot, we all need
to remember something:

Unless your income is solely or largely derived
from poker, it would be helpful to reduce poker
to what it is...a game.

I am super-competitive (just try and beat me at
Connect Four), but there has to be some mental
"switch" that allows you to turn off the aggro part
of you out of battle.

Watch boxers or MMA fighters beat the living hell
out of each other...and then embrace afterward!

It's important to you. It's a journey of knowledge and
experience. It's a way to make money via a hobby.

But it is...a game
