The winner

The Winner – is always part of the answer;

The Loser – is always part of the problem;

The Winner – always has a program;

The Loser – always has an excuse.

The Winner – says, “Let me do it for you”;

The Loser – says, “That’s not my job”;

The Winner – sees an answer for every problem;

The Loser – sees a problem for every answer;

The Winner – sees a green near ever sand trap;

The Loser – sees two or three sand traps near every green

The Winner – says, “It may be difficult but it’s possible”

The Loser – says, “It may be possible but it’s too difficult”

Be a winner.

The dirty work

Show me a guy who’s afraid to look bad and I’ll show you a guy you can beat every time.

Lou Brock

Many things in life involve the risk of defeat, the risk of failure.

You have to take those risks, you have to agree to the chance of looking absolutely stupid. That’s the only way to actually achieve something. Don’t be too uptight.

Getting it right

Getting something done is an accomplishment; getting something done right is an achievement.

The positive effects of pressure

To achieve great things, two things are needed. A plan, and not quite enough time.

Leonard Bernstein

Awesome quote! And it is so true.

Having a tight time schedule creates the certain kind of pressure that just gets you to get stuff done. It forces you to get going, which can be extremely motivating.
