COMING IN 2ND

best : culture : COMING IN 2ND

[+] ballot by Cathexis
ACTIVE Thu Aug 17, 06 - Mon Feb 02, 09
Nobody wins all of the time.

And in any competition, there is typically only one 'winner.'

How should a person/team act when they come in second?

Be proud of their accomplishment
Know that there are only two options: Winning or Losing -- and they didn't Win
Graciously acknowledge the #1 performance
Question the decision, use any means to see if First place can still be salvaged
Ignore these results and redouble efforts to win next competition
1 & 3: Gracious and proud
run, RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN!
Realize that nobody will remember them

COMMENTS:
Voted : Be proud of their accomplishment
If the person did their best then they have no reason to feel bad,they simply were out classes that day.Only children expect to win everytime and are upset when they are not number one.

Coming from the certainty that there could only be one winner.
