How Losers Win Big and Winners Lose Big

 Korean's Nana is now the world's prettiest star
As Sun Tzu said in The Art of War, you have to fight till the end to know who is the loser and winner.

There are 6 ways a loser can become a winner, and you too can apply them into your business:
  1. Limited Edition.  Products that cannot be sold can be re-packaged as limited edition versions and create a scarcity effect that everyone wants
  2. Admit a Weakness.  When you admit a weakness before people bring this up, you come across as honest and forthcoming.  People trust honesty and as long as you mention the mitigating factors, people will see your weakness as a strength instead!
  3. Tag along Winners.  Like Samsung tags along its lesser popular models (Alpha range) by using the name 'Galaxy'
  4. Sympathy and Empathy.  Appeal on people's softer sides and they will sympathise and empathise with you.  When you win their hearts, you are no longer a loser in their eyes
  5. Put in 1,000% Effort.  Think Big and Dominate yourself.  Go for the stars.  When you invest heavily, you can turn any failed products into winners.  Like what Samsung did to its TV business in the 1990s and to its mobile phone business in 2006
  6. Get a Coach.  Bod Nadeli said that people unless coached, will reach their full potential.  At least go for training and make 1,638% return on your training (see details here).  Related articles:

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years.  Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself?  At least I have better discipline".  It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Have You Found Your Sun Yi and Teresa Teng?

I n the long, unfolding history of the Chinese-language music scene, "The Moon Represents My Heart" 月亮代表我的心 stands as an unsurpassable milestone. Yet, the journey of this globally renowned masterpiece, a song that would eventually captivate the world, was fraught with setbacks: it was once dismissed as "trash" by its own creator and tossed into a wastebasket, later suppressed by official policy as a "banned song ," and initially failed to gain any traction when performed by two different singers. The dramatic turnaround in this song’s fate is not merely a musical legend; it offers a profound life lesson: the greatest stroke of luck in life is not about how perfect you are, but about encountering the "right people", those who truly understand you, support you, and help you realize your potential, at exactly the right moment. I. The First "Right Person": A "Talent Scout" Who Recognizes Your Worth In the early 1970s, composer T...
