Yeah, you probably will enjoy it more. But that's not to say I won't enjoy it. I have enjoyed the wins this year, and at the same time the losses just haven't gotten to me the way they used to.
I would say I enjoy the wins about 60% as much as I used to. On the other hand the losses barely even bother me anymore. I would rather enjoy the wins about 60% as much when the losses only bother me about 10% as much. It leads (for me, YMMV) to a better overall experience.
*shrug* I don't know, I suppose this way of approaching things isn't for everyone, but it really helped me. I just wish I could remember who it was that gave me the advice.
