In our society being a WINNER is what
symbolizes success. Victory is the ultimate factor and we live and die
by it. We don’t tolerate failure and it isn’t an option. If somebody fails in
our society he or she is demeaned as unsuccessful.
But don’t panic I am only mentioning extremes.
Most people fall somewhere in the grey area (more closer to the winning side)
between Winning and Losing. The general public is generally successful at
something’s but then loses at others. They are successful enough to be recognized but
then don’t fail enough to be forgotten.
To give you a better idea of this scale, an
example of person who is failing at life could be a homeless person, who while
having the resources around stays homeless. And an example of a winner could be
somebody like Steve Jobs who reached the apex of his career and changed the
world.
So if you’re fed up with losing or just simply
want to win more, you have to put in the work. With a lot of dedication
and a little bit of knowledge a person can easily change their life and become
a winner. This knowledge is what I hope to share with you today.
After a lot of research I was able to condense a
huge resource down to this list of 27 key differences between winners and
losers. The purpose was that you could take this list one point at a time and
try to implement 27 short term goals rather than a large unmanageable long term
goal To Become a Winner.
I hope this will help
you determine where you stand and where you still need to improve. Here are 27
things that winners do and losers don’t.
27 Differences Between
Winners and Losers:

Winners are very ambitious and driven about what
they want to achieve. They don’t take no for answer and self-motivate
themselves to keep going.
I’ve missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I’ve lost almost

missed. I’ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I
succeed. – Michael Jordan
