Winners and Losers

Winners and Losers

People as me all the time what the difference is between Winners and Losers?
To me its simple. Weather it is sports, business, or life, I see the same thing over and over again.
"Winners Fail More Than Losers Fail."
Now pick yourself up off the floor and follow what I'm saying. Winners Fail, then try again. Fail, then try again. Over and over again until they finally succeed.
- To the tune of 10,000 failures before Edison invented the electric light bulb.
- Losing 5 different political elections before President Lincoln was elected President of The United States.
Wow! What great examples of success that we can look up to.
What do "losers" do? They fail, then quit! Simple, Done, Game Over.
Persistence is going to be the key to success for you. Everyone will have speed bumps, hurdles, or just plain failures. That is not a question. The question will be,,,,, what are you going to do at that point.

The Great Michael Jordan (who I consider to be one of the best basketball players of all time) once said about failing.
~ "If you're attempting to achieve, there will be roadblocks. I've had them; everybody has had them. but obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it."

~ Muhammad Ali once said:
"Inside of a ring or out, ain't nothing wrong with going down. It's staying down that's wrong."

Wow! Two great examples of winners and the mindset that they have to maintain to be successful.

Hope these words of wisdom help you to keep working and to press on. I know they help me every single day.

Happy Investing

Matt.
