To the edge of defeat…

A very impressive scene from “Searching for Bobby Fischer” (1993)
Don’t miss the full movie!

“Vinnie: He didn’t teach you how to win, he taught you how not to lose. That’s nothing to be proud of. You’re playing not to lose, Josh. You’ve got to risk losing. You’ve got to risk everything. You’ve got to go to the edge of defeat. That’s where you want to be, boy – on the edge of defeat.

Josh Waitzkin: But…

Vinnie: But what? Play. Never play the board, always the man. You’ve gotta play the man *playing* the board. Play *me*. I’m your opponent, you have to beat *me*. Not the board, beat *me*.”

If you only focus on the problem…
