Winners win & losers lose!

[Rio DiNero]

Here is a 20 point list that discerns the difference between winners and losers. You can learn why winners win and losers lose very quickly by checking this list.

1. Winners have dogged determination. Losers lack the ability to see any project through to a satisfactory conclusion.
2. Winners never give up, give in or surrender. Losers quit the moment things get the slightest bit difficult.
3. Winners make exceptional use of available time. Losers waste time engaging in useless activities.
4. Winners plan and map their route to success. Losers consider plans belong to builders and maps belong in glove-boxes.
5. Winners take responsibility for all outcomes. Losers shun responsibility and prefer to place blame on others.
6. Winners commence a task at the earliest opportunity. Losers procrastinate, delay and run out of time.
7. Winners learn from their own mistakes and the experience of others. Losers make the same mistakes over and over again.

True. Only a small difference between being a winner or a loser. Only a few seconds separate a hero from a coward
