one or two doors of your success.

But, if your attitude is correct, you can open even last door of your success i.e. you can achieve your dreams.

WINNERS V/S. LOSERS The winner is always part of the answer. The loser is always 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 is not my job”.

WINNERS V/S. LOSERS Winners say, “ I must do something”. Losers say, “something must be done”. Winners see possibilities. Losers see problems.

Winners make it happen. Losers let it happen.
