The Gambler -

Go find a better table. If this resonated with you, hit share. You never know who is sitting at a bad table right now, waiting for permission to leave.

Because we aren’t just gamblers. We are addicts to the possibility .

Let’s stop romanticizing the gambler for a moment. We usually picture the winner: the stoic man in sunglasses tossing a chip onto the felt, walking away with a briefcase full of cash. But that is the exception, not the rule. The Gambler

We stay because we have already invested so much. "I can’t quit now," we whisper. "I’m due for a win."

If you are staying in a situation just to prove you were right initially, you have already lost. Pride is the worst ante you can pay. Go find a better table

If you can’t see a path to victory that doesn’t involve a miracle, push your chair back, stand up, and walk to the door.

The lights will stay on. The cards will keep shuffling. There will always be another hand. Because we aren’t just gamblers

You can’t bluff forever. At some point, you need the actual cards. Do you have a plan? Do you have assets? Do you have leverage? Or are you just hoping? Hope is not a strategy. It’s a donation to the casino.
