These 3 guys were all professional baseball players and are some of the winningest pitchers in the history of the game.
Cy Young who tops the list has almost 100 MORE wins than the next closest guy
If you know anything about baseball, you know this is mindblowing

Nolan Ryan and Greg Maddux were arguably 2 of the best pitchers of their generations but they both had almost 150 fewer wins than Cy Young
Still, they are known for being winners and absolutely dominant winners at that

That all 3 of these guys also have more LOSSES than almost every other pitcher in the history of the game 
That's right!
Some of the most dominant, winningest, GREATEST players to ever play the game of baseball, also lost more than almost every other player.

So, don't get discouraged about your minor setbacks, obstacles, or lack of success early on...
Just remember that some of the greatest ever have also experienced setbacks and obstacles.
The difference is, they didn't just lose and go home, they kept going
Don't give up!
