The Difference Between Winning and Losing
By Catherine Pulsifer

What makes a winner? What qualities does a winner have in comparison to a loser. There are many differences that determine a person's success. Below is a short poem that shows the differences between winners and losers:

Hanging on, persevering, WINNING Letting go, giving up easily, LOSING

Accepting responsibility for your actions, WINNING Always having an excuse for your actions, LOSING

Taking the initiative, WINNING Waiting to be told what to do, LOSING

Knowing what you want and setting goals to achieve it, WINNING Wishing for things, but taking no action, LOSING

Seeing the big picture, and setting your goals accordingly, WINNING Seeing only where you are today, LOSING

Being determined, unwilling to give up WINNING Gives up easily, LOSING

Having focus, staying on track, WINNING Allowing minor distractions to side track them, LOSING

Having a positive attitude, WINNING having a "poor me" attitude, LOSING

Adopt a WINNING attitude!
No matter what happens in your life there is good in it. We sometimes have to really look for the good, but it is there.

The key to success and less stress in your life is YOUR ATTITUDE!

Reading the biographies of many successful people shows that they faced many challenges, challenges that caused stress. Many of them failed over and over again, but they never gave up.
They dealt with the stress of failure and stayed focused on their goal. Their attitude and determination lead them to success.

To quote Thomas Edison, "Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up."
