When I was a young business man back in the mid seventies, part of my job was to call on high school sports programs. While waiting to see a coach in one of the more successful North Georgia high schools—I noticed a poem posted on the wall and it so impressed me that I copied it and kept it for future reference.
What great truths this great poem holds—not just for sports but for all aspects of our lives.
The Winner is always a part of the answer;
The Loser is always a part of the problem.
The Winner always has a program;
The Loser always has an excuse.
The Winner says, "Let me do it for you;
"The Loser says, "That's not my job."
The Winner sees an answer for every problem;
The Loser sees a problem in every answer.
The Winner says, "It may be difficult but it's possible;
"The Loser says, "It may be possible but it's too difficult."
