WINNERS & LOSERS
(Anonymous)

  • A winner says, "Let's find out" a loser says, "Nobody knows."
  • 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 knows how and when to say "Yes" and "No"; a loser says, "Yes, but" and "Perhaps not" at the wrong times, for the wrong reasons.
  • A winner isn't nearly as afraid of losing and a loser is secretly afraid of winning.
  • 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 shows he's sorry by making up for it; a loser says "I'm sorry" but does the same thing next time.
  • A winner knows what to fight for, and what to compromise on; a loser compromises on what he shouldn't, and fights for what isn't worth fighting about.
  • A winner listens; a loser just waits until it's his turn to talk.
  • A winner would rather be admired than liked, although he would prefer both; a loser would rather be liked than admired, and is even willing to pay the price of mild contempt for it.
  • A winner feels strong enough to be gentle; a loser is never gentle, he is either weak or pettily tyrannous by turns.
  • 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 armour.
  • A winner explains, a loser explains away.
  • 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 "Thats the way it's always been done here".
  • A winner paces himself; a loser has only two speeds; hysterical and lethargic.
