Winning a 6 Part Series

Plan to Succeed continued, - Winning I’ve been contemplating a comment Bryan made in one of our Ninja meetings on how many people he has seen set a goal and come so close to achieving it only to give up just before that realization. That started me to thinking about movies like Papillon or Unbroken where the main character’s primary goal was to survive. In these true life movies, the main characters prevailed! Yes, I know there are better examples right here in our industry of successful people prevailing but those are great movies, right? But why do some prevail when others don’t and what sets these successful individuals apart? What common traits do winners share that others lack? Here’s a list that may apply. 1.Persistence 2.Attitude 3.Effort 4. Courage 5.Competition 6.Adversity. Next week let’s explore Persistence and it’s role in helping us succeed and achieve our goals. “Winners are willing to go longer, work harder, and give more than anyone else.” Vince Lombardi
