Gambling is a game of strategy and luck, however positive your mind can get if the you lack the two factors, it's hard to win and keep a positive mindset (especially when you're losing). Also, for me I don't recommend people to gamble, maybe for past time. But don't go gambling everyday as it can be very addictive and might find it hard to let go of the habit (of gambling).
Absolutely right, strategy and luck are the most important factors in gambling. Without both it will be nothing and bring us to big losses. And i also agree that positive thinking also help us to boost our strategy and not being destructed while playing.
What you say is interesting, definitely being positive will help in many ways in life but i will not totally agree with you on being positive in gambling unless there is really studies or experiment on the gambling with positive thinking if this is true like what you say i believe the casino will go burst in no time.
Let me have some objection please. The OP did not sated there that positive thinking is the key to when but instead just to help the gambler to stay strategic on the game like being focus on the game.
How can we even think of an evil in a virtue? Do you really think that these two opposite things can live together? Can water and fire exist together? No, so is the gambling and positivity. These are hundred and eighty oriented things and they can never exist together. How can a person become positive to lose his life and money and family and everything he had in his life.
