Would you get in the ring to fight Mike Tyson

Ive been beaten many times, however I believe we all continue to play on (despite the huge odds and handicap stacked against) us because just like a boxer we don't have the mentality to stop when we are getting beaten and want a rematch when we lose.

Excellent post. I guess it is human nature to believe in the old quote: "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again" However with gambling this quote does not work. Just like you said -- Don't get back in the ring! Why get beat up over and over? 

This stuff does not come from thinking this comes from lack of thinking or the wish of not thinking. There was a scientist many years ago that was given d** by the US government to study its effect. He went on with that for years and when the US cut him of the Israelis gave him some more. His conclusions? we have built in c** receptors in our brain goes for everyone on the planet. So in some sense we need to get high naturally. We do not beat this by being dormant human beings without thought. we beat this by being present in the moment. The more aware you can be the better are your chances are. This wont always happen but that is the state you need to be aiming to be in. Habits can be broken by other habits so start getting in shape or play golf or do something else that takes your time and can be your new poison. Get out of your natural environment. In short if you need change then create it so you have a chance of getting that change. Do the same and you just get more of the same.

Best
