Is being a loser a bad thing? It depends on how you look at it. Achievements that today’s society views as hallmarks of success, like wealth and fame, Epictetus saw as insignificant compared to the things that are truly worth living for and can only be found within. But we’re so afraid to be seen as losers that we're willing to suffer in exchange for other people’s approval and gamble away our chances of being happy and free.
