What is a Winner?



What is a winner?
A winner is someone who can overcome adversity.
A winner doesn’t ask for new cards when he’s dealt a bad hand.
A winner doesn’t become complacent in his misfortunes.
A winner understands winning is a process.
A process of ups and downs.
A process that pushes individuals to wits end.
A process that drives people to the deep trenches of their mind.
A trench so deep that it challenges everything the person ever believed in.
A winner doesn’t dwell on that moment of hesitation.
A winner is confident he can climb out of the slums of hell.
A winner understands the worst thing that can happen is to give up on themselves.
A winner appreciates the struggle; for they know nothing in life comes easy.
Failure is always there.
Failure whispers ‘quit’ when you believe you can’t climb anymore.
A winner has the discipline to realize that the ascent is redeeming.
A winner doesn’t stop until he reaches that peak and pushes further.
A winner is humbled by his losses.
A winner looks forward to the next opportunity for success.
A winner grasps the present moment, understanding that nothing is guaranteed.
A winner takes advantage of every opportunity that presents itself.
A winner is an individual who is triumphant in his struggles
A winner doesn’t boast in his achievements.
What does it take to be a winner?
It takes something deep within an individual.
It takes the ability to understand that you have the tools to be a winner.
It takes the courage to take that first step towards what you know you can become.
It takes the perseverance to continue when you’ve failed.
It takes the confidence when no one else believes in you.
It takes the motivation to prove everyone wrong.
It takes the humbleness to forgive everyone who doubted you when you finally make it.
