Tao Translation In Modern Words--#7

Winning can be just as bad as losing.
Confidence can mess you up just as much as fear.
What does "winning can be just as bad as losing" mean?
If you're down, you might be able to get up.
But if you're up, you can get knocked down real fast.

Don't worry about the score, just do what you have to do.
What does "confidence can mess you up just as much as fear" mean?
Fear can keep you from getting the job done, but confidence can get you in over your head.
Walk tall, but don't get cocky.
Know your limits, and nothing can ever hold you back.

Deal with what you can.
The rest will follow.
