Bingo, "lose well" is such a hard concept to grab for people not used to it, and it takes a lot of training and discipline to understand and then practice it in real life. In this society of achievement, we tend to think "losing" is such a huge indignity that we actively resist the chance of learning and coming back stronger from the loss. Love that you bring the dojo stories to Substack, please keep doing it!
