I have learnt a lot in gambling and the particular I must mentioned here is PATIENCE and not to be too GREEDY even though things are working in my favor as at the time of playing gambling once I get my target Winn I pull out. This is because greed in gambling is one of the problem why people lose much of their capital.
Yes, even in trading you need a very lot of patience there since, we cannot win in an instant , but most of all we need not to be greedy, that is the main enemy of the gamblers since we are experiencing some losses, we become to greedy when we win as well, we need to be thankful for what we have and what we have already won, whether it is lose or not we need to accept all the happenings when we play.
This happens too many of the gamblers. I would suggest you that there is no need to get worried at all. You have committed your mistake and this is indeed a first step towards recovery. Gambling is all about luck. This is what we should keep in mind while betting. Gambling should never be taken so seriously.

As a gambler, I learned to have high patience and have right mindset. When I was new in gambling my mindset is just to earn money and I found out that I am wrong. I changed my mindset and my first goal was to enhance my gambling skill and also my strategies and gambling psychology. I can now also identify if an investment is worth it to take or not. We better stay to an investment with high risks and low potential rewards.

Don't be addicted and always remember your families and love ones because, winnings are temporal and not permanent. Never reveal your true identities online and ensure to keep your big winnings to yourself alone. Never think of consecutive wins but be rest assure that; a day to win and a day to loose are very real, embrace them.
the problem is addicted gamblers treat no one as family but only the games he plays,for addict only gambling places are considered friend and family's.they dont even care what they will risk but important to sustain their addictions.the main thing is let us prevent not engaging in gambling as much as we can to keep safe and prevent from saddest outcome of being gambler,

Greed if you unable to handle mostly cause the damage into your capital. If you learned how to control this emotions then the chance to become
more pro from this field will be expected. Skills can be enhance if you are taking things seriously as gamblers making its move whenever they see
opportunities to take advantages within the situations that can lead them to more successful journey.

Skills have nothing to do with the vast majority of games, since they're based on random chance.

However, games like Poker, Chess, Backgammon etc have a strong skill element, and are much less based on luck.

As such, emotions have very little involvement in a pure luck based game, and only alters how much or how little somebody wins over X period of time.

Yeah, addiction in gambling is really so bad and got many negative effects to the gambler, like probably mental health sometimes and also financial problems and many other bad things. I really dislike to be addicted to that and I just control myself. I learned how to control myself since few months though, as I was kinda addicted few years before.

when i gamble i think of my family  .

 i think that if gamble and win i can make them happy but im aware that loosing can occur anytime , that is why i make sure that i secure my coins once or twice i hit a profit  .  i never gamble thinking only of myself  . it helps when you have inspiration because you can control yourself to not be greedy     . 

that is the other thing that i learn as a gambler    .
Well, we are different I am not thinking to my family when gamble because if you lose so much in gambling it will hurt you too much base on my experience before. That is why I learn and gamble only for fun and gamble only if you have extra money because if you don't have extra and you just get money from your salary it will hurt if you lose.

That's the thing that I learn when gambling you need to make sure that you have control of your self and think that gambling is not a life saver.

As a gambler, the thing that I learn is .. all thing is uncertain until it happens.  Just like in betting, we do not know whether we will win or lose until the result happens.  I do not believe in luck but I do believe in probability. And for that, I think all things is govern by numbers/system.

It makes me realize that gambling will never assure your fate, it's either good or bad and you can't do anything about it but to accept the fact that it is the outcome of your decision. It teaches me that sometimes luck is not favorable with me and it's fine as long as I know to acquire things from my own mistakes and experiences. It makes me think that I don't have to rely on gambling to satisfy and enjoy myself during leisure time because there are still various of activities that can entertain me like reading some books which can enhance my perspective when it comes to different things. My gambling experience build me for who I am today, maybe I feel remorse regarding my past but I have realize that those experiences help me by guiding me to be on the right path. It teaches me that my life should not focus on gambling because there are something much more important than winning the jackpot, I feel bad by just thinking how gambling affects me as a person. It gives a huge negative impact on my life because of my own mistakes and I admit it but I allow myself to grow and improve that's why I finally know my own limitations.

that's mostly the nature of gamblers, they say they're not addicted, but they often play gambling, and will certainly think about winning and winning, and that's what I experienced too. the lesson that can be taken from gambling is learning to control yourself because when we can control ourselves everything should be fine, even though we continue to play gambling.

And that is the thing which most of the people forget about during gambling, a gambler always think about the money at the time of gambling, they do not think about their family and the greed of money lead them to be addict, most of the people pursue their losses and try to recover them, i think gambling is for entertainment and win and loss is a part of life.

So if you fail, it may just mean that you are using wrong tools and employing wrong approaches, or simply not properly prepared or motivated. So how's gambling really different in this regard now that we seem to have found a way to beat the house (even if only for a small profit)? The point is, there is false hope, but there is also false hopelessness. And the latter is generally considered much worse than the former

I'm actually not sure if it really is worse. Dozens of millions of people lost their lives in the 20th century exactly because of the following a false hope. At least from the sources I read, it can be concluded that it is better to have no hope at all than a false one

In fact, it's the other way around overall

And it is not just about the people in the 20th century or any other particular period as it is more about the entire history of human civilization. When you are hopeful, even if your hopes appear to be in vain, you are forced to act and still have a chance to succeed in the end, however minuscule that chance might be (as luck or fate may easily turn the tables at any moment). But when you are hopeless, you are giving up all hope and just waiting passively for the axe to fall. As you can see, false hope is better than false hopelessness in the long run specifically because the former forces you to fight despite all odds while the latter to cease all fighting

And it is definitely applicable to gambling. If you think you've found a way to beat the house, you better forget about that, mate, the sooner the better

So far so good, bro

But I agree that this dilemma is fully applicable to gambling, and in a reverse, or even perverse, way. Casinos are exploiting and actually reversing the fact that false hopelessness is worse than false hope. If you feel hopeless, you will obviously avoid gambling at all costs, and thus won't lose anything. However, when you are filled with hopes, you will go on playing and most likely end up losing

The other lesson from gambling is always to restrict the money you use to play because without restricting the money, you can't save money to play gambling on a different day. Besides money, so you can stop playing gambling if you think it's enough to play gambling for that day, you also need to limit the time you use in gambling. You shouldn't be selfish in gambling besides restricting money and money because that can make you lose the opportunity to save money if you win.
the problem is can we really restrict our expenses while in gambling table?limited gamblers can adopt to that because the way Gambling was created is to take all our money while casino's are pretending making us enjoying and happy but the truth is?they are taking our money in another way in which we cannot find until we spent all.

what you need is controlling your self from looking to Bet,in this way you can prevent your self from risking your money.

For example, if you fail over and over again in attempts of finding a particular job, maybe you should stop trying to get that particular job, and focus on finding a different one

That's an interesting observation

Einstein is credited with the saying that "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results”. And while I certainly agree with the man on his definition of insanity since this is what most of us are doing most of the time anyway (known as behavior patterns), I can't quite agree that you should stop looking for something which you feel is your thing - let's call it true calling
