I just got done reading a great book that was an easy read and one that I would highly recommend reading and sharing with your success team. The book is called The Top 10 Distinctions Between Winners and Whiners by Keith Cameron Smith.
Below is a list of the The Top 10 Distinctions Between Winners and Whiners:
10. Winners take responsibility. Whiners play the victim.
9. Winners can have what they want. Whiners want what they cannot have.
8. Winners find a way. Whiners find an excuse.
7. Winners brighten a room by entering. Whiners brighten a room by leaving.
6. Winners listen twice as much as they talk. Whiners talk twice as much as they listen.
5. Winners enjoy life’s journeys. Whiners put their joy in the destinations.
4. Winners build friends. Whiners destroy friends.
3. Winners THINK BIG! Whiners think small.
2. Winners are focus-minded. Whiners are scatterbrained.
1. Winners create positive meanings. Whiners create negative meanings.
I am going to add one of my own. Winners are the people on your success team you want to work with. Whiners are the ones that you move to the bottom of the list.
ARE YOU A WINNER OR A WHINER?
