Life and Poker: an analogy

Aggressive poker players play their hand even if it is not good. They are like people who play life aggressively, those who push their luck too much. Although this is a good attribute in the way that people like this love to make things happen, but you must also realize that you cannot always win. There are others who will have better poker hands than you do. However, it is also not good to just fold every time in poker, waiting for an excellent hand. There are these people who wait for things to happen. Though this may sound like a positive characteristic as it builds patience, it also borders on being afraid. Thus, too much of anything can't be good, even in poker. Poker is all about timing, and so is life.

Poker also teaches people about life in terms of perseverance. There are times that you would lose, and times that you would win in poker. Losing a game in poker should not be a hindrance for you to play another one, just make sure that the next time you do play, be wiser and avoid making the same mistakes. In life, you will also encounter lots of disappointments and frustrations, but you should never give up. Neither should you commit the same mistakes. Whenever you fall, stand up and try all over again, but now you have more experience. Losing a poker game is part of the learning process, the learning experience, and you should welcome it rather than be sour about it.

Unlike other games, poker requires skills, not just mere luck. Sure, you can rely on luck the first games of your poker life, and win, but eventually, you will run out of luck and lose. There are some processes and items that promise an increase in luck, like feng shui and lucky stones or numbers, and though there is nothing wrong in believing in such things, bear in mind that they only help people, not do everything for you. You still have to do your part. Like in poker, your pre-flop pocket aces can easily be defeated by others if you do not know how to play them.
