How to Become a Winner
Charles A. "Chuck" Amati
1969
A Winner says - let's find out.
A Loser says - nobody knows.
A Winner goes through a problem.
A Loser goes around it and never gets
past it.
A Winner makes commitments.
A Loser makes promises.
When a Winner makes a mistake he says -
I was wrong.
When a Loser makes a mistake he says -
it wasn't my fault.
A Winner says - I'm good but not as
good as I ought to be.
A Loser says - I'm not as bad as a lot
of other racers.
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's not my job.
The Winner sees an answer in every
problem.
The Loser sees a problem in every
answer.
The Winner sees a checker at every
track.
The Loser sees two or three tracks near
every checker.
The Winner says - it may be difficult
but possible.
The Loser says - it may be possible but
it's too difficult.
A Winner tries to learn from those who
are superior to him.
A Loser tries to tear down those who
are superior to him.
A Winner is always willing to try a new
setup.
A Loser always wants to leave the set
up that worked.
This poem was written by Chuck in 1969.
A copy of it hangs in my garage to this day. Thought you guys might
enjoy.
