KEEP UP THE WINNING SPIRIT
Winning is surpassing yourself and turning your dreams into reality. It is closely tied to finding your sense of fulfillment and success. Winning depends on the individual alone, not the actions of others. The winning spirit is not just about desiring to have a high score, finishing in the first place or beating others. It is about overcoming yourself, your limitations and your fears to reach your goal, dream and aspiration in life.
Instead of competing with others, compete with yourself by pushing yourself towards your personal goals. When you set a goal and push through obstacles to attain that goal, then you have "won." In this way, the spirit of winning becomes highly personal, with the focus on the individual and not the group. When winning is personal, it is possible for everyone to become winners not only that, your achievement will not be limited, following the pace of others. By redefining what winning means, a better outcome is produced, both now and in the future.
The winning spirit is the spirit of a champion. To be a champion you must have the winning spirit.
The winning spirit needs to be sustained until your goals are achieved. These 7 steps will help you have the winning spirit and sustain it.
