The world, according to author, salesman, and speaker extraordinaire Don Hutson, consists of winners and whiners. "Have you noticed that you seldom hear highly successful people whining?" he asks. Instead, everyone silently cheers when whiners leave the room and take with them their own personal dark clouds that have been hovering over their heads.
Whiners make excuses; winners just get the job done. In weight-reduction classes, participants are often reminded that being thin feels better than, say, chocolate tastes. That's true for accomplishment, too. Having a good excuse for a poor performance doesn't compare with the thrill of having produced excellent results.
