14. People who Cheat to Win, Have Lost

14.  People who cheat to win, have lost, so just keep it moving

It’s sad that so many people feel the need to cheat in order to “win”.  This is so not necessary!  When they do this they cheat themselves out of so much.  They cheat themselves out of the satisfaction of winning honestly and knowing what that actually feels like.  Even losing courageously is more satisfying than winning by cheating.  The beauty in losing courageously is that we can learn from our mistakes, while the cowardly cheater won’t see the need to get better. 

There are some who steal from others, and think they’ve won.  When they steal from anyone, they’re basically stealing from themselves, because they stole trust and their own self-respect.  The person(s) they stole from will never recommend them for anything, because they’re now in the untrustworthy category, so right there they’ve lost.

This is why we cannot worry about cheating people; we just have to keep it moving.
