Hello everyone, today I want to talk to you about how important motivation and being optimistic are to me.
I often see very negative people in the Windice chat who, even before starting to play, already say they're going to lose. In my opinion, it's better not to play when you feel like that. If your mind is in "defeat mode," not even the best luck can help you.
Next, I'd like to share with you some simple tricks to be more optimistic, not just on Windice, but in everyday life. Because a positive mindset is the best advantage you can have.
1. The Power of Words: Change Your Internal Chat
What you say in the public chat or think out loud, your brain hears and believes.
Instead of: "I'm going to lose everything today" or "I always get the bad luck."
Try:"I'm going to play smart and enjoy the challenge" or "Today I'm going to try a new strategy."
Simply phrasing it as a learning possibility, not a final judgment, takes the pressure off.
2. The "Micro-Goals" Rule
Don't bet with the sole goal of "winning big." That pressure wears you down. Instead, set process micro-goals
"I'm going to manage my bankroll for 10 rounds without getting carried away."
"I'm going to celebrate the small victories, even if they're not the jackpot."
"My goal today is to have fun and chat with the community."
When you achieve these small goals, your brain gets a dose of satisfaction independent of the final result. That's always winning!
3. The Disconnection Ritual (The Most Important One)
If you feel negativity taking over:
Take a 5-minute break.Close the tab, take a deep breath, and stretch.
Ask yourself: "Am I playing for fun or to vent?" If it's the latter, it's a sign to stop.
Remember your "why": Did you come here to have a good time? Go back to that purpose. Fun should be the main bet.
Being optimistic isn't about believing you'll always win (that's fantasy). Being optimistic is believing that, win or lose, you have control over your attitude and how you experience it. It's betting on your own well-being first.
The next time you log into Windice, log in with the intention of enjoying the journey, not just the destination. You'll see how the experience completely changes.
