99.9% success rate is devastating as a rock climber.
You can safely climb hundreds of times but that one bad break, whenever it happens, is all that matters.
These types of situations present some of the toughest challenges in life. When one loss overshadows countless wins.
It’s typically best to avoid these situations. When we don’t need to, don’t bet the farm. Live to fight another day.
But it’s equally important to understand the nature of a given game before we start to play.
