Whether we like it or not, when you taste the feelings of losing all you want to do is to chase that victory, and aside from that is to chase your losses. It's the typical situation that everyone is dealing with and whether we tell you not to try hard, when it is your emotion and ego being hit by losses, you're going to be on your own without remembering all of those reminders that were given to you.
This is common and often happens to many gamblers, including us, but we must be able to prevent ourselves from trying to recover from losses. We will find it difficult to recover from losses because we will probably experience more losses. Instead of taking the risk of receiving more losses, we should take a break and stop gambling so that we are tempted to continue gambling again.
Yes, when you've been there so many times then you should be aware of that consequence and you won't make the same mistake. But can we do that? Maybe for some but for the majority, it is given that it's hard to prevent ourselves from chasing the losses because it has become a norm and mindset for everybody that we need to recover those losses no matter what happens. And that's the reality that instead of being able to recover, we're incurring more losses. With that, every gambler knows the consequences, and despite that, we continue.
It is normal for many people to see something different, and they will easily say negative things about that person. But we also don't need to follow what they say, especially if we only hear stories from other people about someone, because usually, that story will have additional stories that don't match reality. So we have to be able to filter it ourselves and act slowly, especially if we don't know the real story.
Just ignore them, that's the best weapon against them. They mind their own business, we mind our own businesses too. But if you're the type that's easily intrigued and affected by those, you need to practice yourself that you won't be affected by anything that they say anymore. Because if so, you'll just be distracted by them even if you're not thinking about what they do but you'll have to rebut because they're always telling things that are against you.
