inferior or superior to anyone else, and no one
really needs to be.

A Win-Lose attitude wears many faces. The following
are some of them:
•Using other people emotionally or physically, for your
own selfish purposes.
•Trying to get ahead at the expense of another.
•Spreading rumors about someone else(as if putting
someone else down builds you up).
•Always insisting on getting your way without
concerning yourself with the feelings of others.
•Becoming jealous and envious when something good
happens to someone close to you.

30. Lose-Win- The Doormat
Lose-Win looks prettier on the surface, but it’s
just as dangerous as Win-Lose. It’s the doormat
syndrome. If you adopt Lose-Win as your basic
attitude toward life, then people will wipe their
dirty feet on you. And that’s not healthy.
Prepared by Group 2 30

 Lose-Lose says, “If I’m going to down, then
you’re going to down with me, sucker.”

becomes obsessed with another person in a
negative way.

confidence and security will increase and you’ll start
enjoying other people instead of being threatened them.

yourself.

into winning or when you use it as a way to place yourself
above other.
2. Comparing
 Comparing yourself can become an addiction as strong asPrepared by Group 2 33

34. The Fruits of The Win-Win Spirit

others succeed, and willing to share recognition,
you will be a magnet for friends.
The most surprising benefit of thinking Win-Win
is the good feelings it brings on.

with happy and serene thoughts. It will give you
confidence. Even you fill with light.
