how loser can win

Optimistic enough to put in an honest effort and see what happens. They don't fill their heads with self-defeating thoughts and negative prophecies that keep them from doing their best. Stay focused on what they can do instead of fretting about what they can’t do. Patient enough to take things one decision (and one day) at a time, instead of expecting instant results and losing motivation when those results don't come. See mistakes and problems as learning opportunities instead of being demoralized by them.
