DON'T BE A LOSER

Why do we want to learn how to be a loser? Because we want to be successful in whatever we do, so we have to learn what not to do.

Find out what the unsuccessful do, and do the opposite! It’s simple, but a great reminder to make sure we’re doing the right things.

You probably know someone who you could learn a lot about what not to do. It would be a wealth of information.

I know someone like that and I’ll share at the end of the post.

Here are some ways to be a loser in life..................

1) Wakes up and see how the day goes. Takes things day by day. Doesn’t have goals. Just turns on the computer and decides where to begin.

2) Loves to blame others. Looks outwards for any problems in life. Points fingers. Blames the economy. Blames the weather. Never takes responsibility.

3) Complains a lot. Will talk about their problems with anyone. Never shuts up about them. Does absolutely nothing about changing their situation. Complains about everything.

4) Fears change. Change is bad. Change is evil. Would rather stay safe and boring.

5) Lives someone else’s dream. Finds a career just to please others.

6) Believes being busy means working hard. Doing unimportant things all day long. Running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Wonders why they are always so busy, but haven’t made any progress on their goals.

7) Close friends all have no motivation in life. All their friends wish for a better life, but never do anything. Lots of time is spent complaining about life.

8 ) Believes life isn’t fair. Nothing goes right. Always feels unlucky. Has never gotten a break. Blames others.

17) Waiting for the right time. Putting off it off till next week, month, or next year. Saying now is not the right time. Waiting for the stars and planet to align perfectly to begin. Doesn’t realize there isn’t a perfect time to begin.

18) Using hope as a strategy. Hoping one day life will change. Hoping for miracles. Hoping for a better life. All without doing anything else.

27) Rarely finishes a project or goal. Has so much motivation at the beginning, and starts, but soon quits.

28) Thinks success is just about having a ton of money. Money is the only thing in life. Happiness will come when the money comes.

29) Lives in the past. Wishing life would go back to how it used to be. Thinking they should have, would have, could have. Keeps talking about past successes, since there is nothing to show in the present.

30) Full of excuses. Anything new and exciting is immediately followed by an excuse why it can’t be done.

31) Every year has the same New Year’s resolutions. Always talks about wanting to finally lose weight, make more money, or doing something that they’ve always wanted to do. Sounds like a broken record.

39) Gossips Talking about the lives of others is their favorite pastime. They scrutinize and analyze others’ lives more than they do their own.

40) Looks for the latest quick fix. They’re looking for the latest diet pill to lose weight. They want to learn how to make thousands of dollars a week working just one hour. They want a lot for just a little.

41) Doing the same thing and expecting different results. You keep trying with the same strategy. Thinking brute force solves anything. They refuse to learn from their mistakes.

45) Gives up at the first sign of trouble. Easily gives up. Instead of finding a way around the roadblock, they just turn around and go back from where they came from.

46) Puts in just half the effort. Too lazy to really give it a full effort. Thinking what they are doing won’t work so they don’t want to really try.

50) Procrastinates. Everything that needs to be done can be done later. Puts off important things to do the unimportant.

Think about one or two people in your life that you analyze. If you’re really bold, you could interview them! If you know them well enough, you could easily come up with the answers.

Find out their daily routines. Find out what they watch on TV. Who do they spend most of their time with? What do they talk about? What do they read? What is their mindset? What is their attitude towards life? How do they treat other people? What do they eat?

When you come up with the answers, don’t do any of those things! Do the opposite and you’ll be better off.
