If Winning isn't everything, why do they Keep the Score?

Hello friends,

In this world of competition, does we all really feel that winning isn't everything? I don't think so. We are growing & living in such an environment where winning is compulsory either its sports or job or any other field in life.

In our country winners are highly respected like those who won medals at commonwealth asian or olympic game and they are rewarded but those who lose are not even encouraged. They had to do it there own. Even in our society, those who have achieved good place in life are valued but those who are still trying are some time demoralised by society.

Its true, we can't win all the time but score keep us aware of the area where to lay emphasis so that we should not fail again.

One more thing, if winning were not so important, none of the students at IITs or those preparing for competitive examinations would have committed suicide.

Hi friends,

It is true that winning is not everything in the game, sports spirit is the most important because playing with the true spirit is the thing that matters the most. Discussing about scores they are kept to analyze the performance of every team and every player. Scores also help in deciding which team has won and which team not because in the end there will be only one winner.

Even in a student life, this principle applies. It is not important to get first rank in the class but to analyze the performance of every student the criteria of marks is followed. Marks help in deciding which student has performed well in the class and who is not.

So, friends scores are only there to evaluate an individual and keep a check on his/her performance. In the end, there will be only one winner but everyone tries to win the match and the criteria is score.

Thank you.

Yes, Of course, winning isn't everything. By keeping the sores, you can know your capability. Once you know that, keep working on it and increases it day by day. Just work hard to increase your skills and your talent not for the victory because victory is temporary, if you take that seriously, it will always become a burden on you. So when you won in something don't take that seriously that gives you the pressure of winning all the things which will be in the next. The same comes to losing as.

Well if you lost, don't feel that the whole world is crushing on you. Just chill. Keep working on your skills. The most important thing is don't let others estimate you, you only know what you are capable of. Take a deep breath and start again. Winning or Losing doesn't matter. Your dedication and hard work, passion and love towards the work which you are doing is important.

Hello everyone.

In my opinion we do need to keep scores in any game because these scores make the game more interesting for the player as well as for the audience to watch out. Scores are important to analyze the strength and weakness of a player. If there were no scores there would be no enthusiasm because there would no benchmark to judge the performances of the team.

Also winning is not necessary since its just the outcome of one game. There may be just one winner in a game but there are many winners in life. Winning and losing are just parameters of life to inculcate sportsmanship in players. There is nothing bad in losing, bad is to consider yourself as a loser. So one should refrain from that. When we lose we learn from our mistakes and when we win we cherish our leanings. So in nutshell winning is not everything, its scores that judge ones performance.

Hello guys. I am shankul.

I really want to say this to all of you. Why we all are considering game as cricket, any other sport or School /College exam. Our whole life is a game in itself. And we might not get whatever we want in life, there could be our different wishes we try to have them but if we didn't get, this doesn't mean we stop trying. We came to know at every step where we lag behind. It is not the matter of winning or losing at all. Neither winning or losing make us stronger or weaker. It is just the weakness of ours we came to know at every step and correct them. It is our competition with our own. No one else.

So for me there is no term like winning or losing for me.
It is just improvement of our own.
It is just the scores we get at every step we makeup with our Mistakes.

Thanks.

In my point of view wining is not everything. But do hard work for winning is most important I want to explain this with one example which happen with me. I and my friend Asma participated in many competitions every time she said we have to score best and we must win in this competition.

Every time I said her that if we do our best then we must win due this I become more confidant and we try our best and we got it. If sometime you not able to win then also ok. Because life has every time a second chance. You can improve your mistake which done in before competition and try next time at that you defiantly win.

Because of this we improve our drawbacks. After listening our opinions and according to my opinion I concluded that wining is not everything and scores must important in any game.

Hello I am Shubh.

We all know that every coin has two sides either good or bad. In the same way when two persons try for the same thing then there is always a competition. Same condition is in case of sports winners get good prizes i.e. medals and looser don't get anything at that time the question comes if is it really right?

Friends, winning and loosing never matters in any case on how much did you contribute in doing that task matters so much. And if we think on other side that if winning is not everything then why there is competition. Then I wanna say that if there will be no competition then people won't give their best because people work with exception that they may get something and if there isn't any competition then no 1 will take interest hence competitions is necessary.

Because if you don't keep the score, it means that you have already accepted the defeat without even giving it a try and there can be nothing worse than this. Yes, winning is not everything, but trying for win and giving your best is something that matters the most.

Irrespective of the strength your opponent, you should come on the field with a winning mindset. If you are not able to win, learn from the mistakes that you did in the game and try not to repeat the same in coming games.

Winning and losing are part of a game and also our life. What matters is your attitude after a win or loss. A win does not mean you have achieved everything and a loss doesn't means you are left with with nothing. In both the cases you have to try to improve yourself and move on.

Hello Friends,

In my opinion, if somebody has taken a profession as a sportsman, he wants to be at no. 1 position and if he achieves that still he wants to improve as whole or change its techniques so that he can retain that position. For Example - Rafael Nadal trying very hard to retain its position.

Yes Winning is not everything but yes it has got a lot of value. For a person who is new to a sport requires score so that he can improve more. For a swimmer every second counts to win, to IMPROVE.

When a sportsman achieves a score every second after that is spent by him on thinking how can he score more than the previous one.

So yes scoring is good and creating a score better then the previous one is what sportsman wants but without cheating himself.

Hello friends,

"if winning isn't everything, why do they keep the scores" is very interesting topic. It tells us about two thing. One thing is wining and other thing is score. Yes I agree winning isn't everything but we can't ignore that after wining how we feel. Winning a game increase our confidence, level, pesonality. Now score is very important part of a game because score tells us where we stand and what we have to improve to do better and one more advantage of score is level of game increase because suppose someone score 200 in 20-20 cricket match then people would want more than 200 and then level of game will increase. One more thing when we play a game, we should forget about records always give your best that's main thing.

Thank you.
