I must have a prodigious amount of mind; it takes me as much as a week, sometimes, to make it up! ~Mark Twain
Psychology? Sociology? Ethology? Social sciences? Political sciences? Brain biology? Economical sciences? Physiological sciences? Neurological sciences? Demographic sciences? Mathematical sciences? Statistical sciences? Ecological sciences? Environmental sciences? Chemical sciences? Philosophical sciences? Toxicology? Urbanisation sciences? Biology? Spiritual sciences? Who has a general answer to this question besides 'yes' or 'no'?
Nevermind whether Mind Is Material ? It is immaterial .What is important is your satisfaction and inner joy in achievement of your goal.
@Fateh:
Aristotle was right about the energy of the mind is the essence of life.
Life is evolving toward a state of cosmic consciousness - science is the search for the numerical and harmonic code of that energy - and the method by which intelligent life can anticipate moving the tangent on the curve between dimensions. Think of quantum frequencies governed by based paired prime roots - in which the dance is a TriadalTwist focused on the center of gravity.
@Marcel:
'Do people lose when they have the feeling they win when they lose?'
' What is important - the mind or the material?"
REPLY: The 'mind' is the material.
And sometimes, tactically losing a pawn results in a winning position in the End Game.
There is loos in front of every winning and everything is proportional to your satisfaction
@Eman:
Beneath the harmonic structure of the DNA molecule - there is a Universal Numerical System governed by the architecture of The Prime Root Matrix - which determines all proportions based on the Octave and the Golden Mean Ratio.

Since we are material beings and currently live in material world, materials matter.
But, since there are so many levels of existence (below or above us), we have to live also inside the immaterial world, thus mind is more important than material.

Les scientifiques seront-ils entendus?
I do not think soo.When one has the feeling s/he should have won and yet s/he lost, the result will be disappointment, and resentment.
Winning hearts and minds in Vietnam
The campaign was run by Maj Gen Ed Lansdale of the US Army, who by all accounts was a most remarkable man.
His weapons were not guns but words and music, through which he hoped to persuade the people in the villages to resist the North Vietnamese communists and the home-grown insurgents, the Viet Cong.

Perhaps it might depend on the context? E.g. if you work on climate change, and you think you are right that there is evidence for climate change but there is no climate change, will there be disappointment/resentment?
Is losing/winning a relative concept given that only one of the multiple individual creations/actions will be described as the best? Do people repeat /train the same thing over and over again (e.g. drawing/creation/study...) to ultimately create what is perceived as the best, one outstanding attempt in a life time or more?
The higher win comes from the opening to the love to our creator, God. And God is spirit, not material. This spirit is not our mind but it could remain into ourselves and in our minds too. What is important is the spirit.
Yes, this phenomenon is quite visible in some personalities. Arrogance, lack of humility, lack of courage to accept fault/defeat are few of the traits responsible.
If nature is diversity, what is the definition of loosing or winning? Not more than an short-term interpretation? The so-called loosers of today may become the winners of tomorrow, and vice versa?
Somebody expressed once: the last will become the first!
