We never want to defeat ourselves -life can, and will at times do that for us! Now there is a difference between admitting defeat and defeating ourselves in ourselves though there may be a bit of Gray area in there somewhere.

When a person suffers a severe set back, or series of setbacks, it is good to start getting into some things that you know you you can be successful at.

Losing all the time is not a good thing -winning all the time is probably even worse.
