Winner or Loser




Have you ever read “Born Loser” comic? If you have read and think that you were born to lose, then believe me, you are most likely not a winner. That’s because you believe so. You are what you think you are! Then you’ll go to bed as a loser. When you weak up the following morning, you will still remain a loser! On the other hand, if you believe in yourself and go to bed thinking yourself as a winner, you’ll get up as a winner. Yes. You are what you think you are.

God created us not by chance. Do you know that we are actually a “Born Winner”? If you have the fundamental knowledge, then you could have realized that you were the first to reach there, in your mother’s womb. Oh yes. You had beaten the rest, hundreds and thousands in number, to get into the ripe ovary. You had won the race to gain life!

There is a “Winner” in every one of us. Therefore, as a winner, you must able to discover and expose your winning potential. You have to develop and maintain a winning attitude. Do you want to know what makes a winner?

• You got to get excited and stay excited all the time in order to keep winning many races in life. In other words, you must have the courage and boldness, deep down inside you, to get up and go for it while others are quitting due to worries and fears. You believe that it can be done and you can do it.

• A winner will never point finger to others and pass the buck. Do not blame others but yourself. You are the one who are supposed to shoulder the responsibility for your own mistakes. A work not done is not done. There are no excuses!

By having a positive attitude, you can do what needs to be done no matter how difficult or impossible the circumstance.

In Matthew 19:26, Jesus looked straight at His disciples and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” Trust in the Lord. He will show you the way. Then you will find ways and means to do the impossible rather than to make excuses not to do the possible.

• When you are “down”, make sure you have someone to push you “up”. Someone keeps telling you to remain positive, to hang on for a little longer and that things will finally work out for you. Moreover, God is always there with you and to guide you. Don’t quit, that’s a loser’s attitude!

“Get all the advice you can, and you will succeed; without it you will fail” – Proverbs 15:22

• You are either committed or you are not. A total commitment certainly helps you in maintaining a positive attitude, no matter what the circumstances. Stand firm on your commitment!

“I only want to complete my mission and finish the work….” – Act 20:24

When you go to bed, look at the person in the mirror. Are you a loser or do you have a winner’s face? Thank God for what you have accomplished during the day. Feel proud of doing all that you can do for the day. Tell yourself that what you have not done, you are going to do it tomorrow. With that positive thinking and having a strong belief in yourself, you will never go to bed as a loser. Agree?

When you get up from your bed the next morning, look at the person in the mirror again. Now you are sure that you have a winner’s face. Thank God for another new day; this is going to be a great and wonderful day. Tell yourself that you have high hope and desire for all that today will bring. You intend to live every second and every minute of it fully with positive thinking. You are filled with boundless energy and you feel energetic and vigorous today. You are lively, excited, and dynamic to do all that you can do for another day. Every thing is going to be all right and every thing is going to be OK. That’s great! With a 100% commitment, you will wake up as a winner.
