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’s 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.”

I do want to point out that I found this on the internet, I didn't write it. It said "anonymous" so I'm not sure who wrote it but I think it's awesome and thought this would be the place for it.

This is another version that was posted by voncap in the basketball forum for those of you who don't read anything in that forum...

A WINNER is always a part of the answer,
A Loser is always a part of the problem.

A WINNER says "There ought to be a better way,"
A Loser says "It's always been done that way."

A WINNER says, "Let me do it for you,"
A Loser says, "That's not my job."

A WINNER says, "It may be difficult , but it's possible,"
A Loser says, "It may be possible, but it's too difficult."

A WINNER sees an answer for every problem,
A Loser sees a problem with every answer.

A WINNER always has a program,
A Loser always has an excuse.
