Born Loser

There was a western traveler who travel around the world to learn new things about different cultures. And as he travels around the world, he collects souvenirs along the way. One day he arrived at China. Now we all know that Chinese tattoos are really different from western tattoos. The traveler decided that he should get a Chinese tattoo as a souvenir.

He arrived at a tattoo shop of a wise old tattooist and waited for his turn.
When the big macho guy in front of him came out form the studio, the traveler realized something, he tattooed the words "BORN LOSER" on his arm.

The traveler was thought, "Why would anyone want to label themselves a born loser?"

Puzzled, he went in to ask the old tattooist, "Why did he tattoo "Born Loser" on his arm?"

Pointing to the to his arm, the old tattooist said, "Before you tattoo here,"
then pointing to his head, "you tattoo here."

The morale of the story:
It is important to have the right mindset.
The big macho guy in the story has already convinced himself that he's a born loser.
So no matter how big how macho he is, he is only what his mind tells him.

I've you do not have a positive mindset and from the start, you already convinced yourselves you'll fail. You are bound to fail. Because you've already given up from the start and you will not be putting in the effort to fight for what you want.

Believe in yourselves. Fight and work for what you desire. Fight hard, work hard.
Even if you fail in the end, you fail with no regrets because you know you did your best.
Aim for the sky, even if you fall, you'll fall on the clouds.
