If I had to point to 1 thing and ONLY one thing, that was the biggest difference between winners and losers, it's that losers blame everyone else for everything bad that happens. And winners blame themselves.
Losers are always taking about getting screwed over by their boss, roommate, partner, friends, cops, government, system, etc.
I think at it's core, blaming others results in you never learning or improving yourself, because why would you go through that effort when someone would just screw you over again.
Whereas someone who recognizes and admits that at some point in your chain of failure, you made decisions that contributed to that failure, then you can learn and focus on making better choices in the future.
Is there any larger factor in determining who wins and who loses?
And how do you take a loser and convince them to stop blaming everyone else? I've tried many times and they just don't want to hear it, even though it would change their life for the better
