Hey, it’s whatever works for you. I personally don’t hate losing with every ounce of my soul.
Lose so much that you stop keeping track of them. I still get upset if I lose at tournaments but I play so much online that all the loses and wins sort of blur together.
If you are winning half your matches as a beginner, you are not playing good enough people and are developing bad habits that will hold you back in the long run. Fight better people.
So, I am speaking from my MKX experience. I am not really sure of your commitment level, but you could always record & watch your matches. I actually take much more away from a loss than I do from a win, so in a way, losing is a big deal. Of course hindsight is 20/20, but you can see the situations your opponent put you in, and maybe formulate strategies to put yourself in better positions in that matchup in the future! 
I do not feel discouraged by losing. I learned to get where I am in these games by losing. Apply your current aptitude and understanding to someone of greater skill, and you will lose. The key is not to think of losing as the end of the chain or the end of a process, but as a part of that process where you take your current output and measure it against your opposition and analyze the difference. You do not have to lose to learn, but you should always learn when you lose.
Honored Battle for fun is all matters to me, winning or not no matter what i try through hard works to win.
If someone truly discourage/disgrace the honor code of gamer, i pray that someone who has very pure and strong code of honor can end the dishonored gamers soon
A good friend and sparring partner put win ratios into perspective for me by simply stating that even the highest level players have give or take maybe 60% win rate (hard to tell really so the number is just speculative). Sure a high level player can have a nearly 100% win rate against a noob but when playing at their own level it’s different. They back and forth in a lot of sessions. With that in mind here are some key questions we can ask ourselves when we lose:
-What were my goals for the match?
-Did I work on those goals enough and have I gotten closer to reaching them?
-What were 2-3 most memorable things that contributed to my loss? How can I deal with them in the future?
-Has working on the goals I set out help improve my chances of winning at the level I am now?
There are plenty more questions we can ask yourselves but these are quite baseline to start off with to make winning a less important factor. It’s also quite important to know what our shortcomings as people are when we play games. I fall into auto-pilot mode very easily so I’ve been trying to start off my play sessions (regardless of game) making it clear that I will allow myself to auto-pilot purely on the first few matches. Win or lose I’m going to focus on getting the auto-pilot fix my brain craves. Then I take a look at what I’ve noted down that I wanna work on and I do my best to focus on the goals I’ve set.
Accept that you’re shit at this game, and focus on learning from your mistakes. You will lose frequently but every loss is a learning experience to not repeat your mistakes
Throw my stick across the room.
Refuse to say gg.
Refuse to shake hands.
Silly when i say this now but when salt strikes.

+1 to recording footage. Won’t help you stop being discouraged, but it will help you improve. Leading to more wins.
With regards to being discouraged. Just don’t be discouraged. There really isn’t any trick to actually. That’s what it feels like. The highly competitive nature of the games means you will just have to deal with these feelings. You say you feel it when you are getting ready to play the game, that’s your competitive nature trying to come out. Unleash the beast.
Loosing doesn’t matter. It may effect the level of player you get put up against. Which is a good thing. But you will start winning more in the long run. The only time you have to worry about loosing is during a tournament. When there is something on the line.
