Winners and Losers

Successful leaders understand the need to change to remain viable in the market place and for the health of the organization. Winning, no matter the definition, requires the fortitude to change. |

Winners vs. Losers When a winner makes a mistake, he says, "I was wrong;" When a loser makes a mistake, he says, "It wasn't my fault." A winner works harder than a loser and has more time; A loser is always "too busy" to do what is necessary. A winner goes through a problem; A loser goes around it, and never gets past it. A winner makes commitments: A loser makes promises. A winner says, "I'm good, but not as good as I ought to be;" A loser says, "I'm not as bad as a lot of other people." A winner listens; A loser just waits until it is his turn to talk. A winner respects those who are superior to him and tries to learn something from them; A loser resents those who are superior to him and tries to find chinks in their armor. A winner feels responsible for more than his job; A loser says, "I only work here." A winner says, "There ought to be a better way to do it;" A loser says, "That's the way it's always been done here."
