Summary

This quote is a lighthearted reminder to not take everything too seriously in life. It emphasizes the importance of not becoming overly obsessed with success or winning in every situation. Applying a "life and death" mentality to every game or challenge can lead to unnecessary stress, disappointment, and missed opportunities. It suggests that it is healthier and more balanced to maintain a perspective that allows for enjoyment, learning, and taking things in stride, rather than treating every situation as a do-or-die scenario.

Since then, I've observed that a charismatic personality who's willing to take risks only for personal gain does not make a good leader.
