"My experience with thousands of people across the globe has proven to me
that successful people everywhere have at least one thing common: They
never make excuses to explain why things are the way they are or
complain about the way things should be. Successful people just take
charge and make things happen. Of course, they don't always succeed the
first time around, but winners never give up. If they stumble, they get
right back in the game.
I've found that although most of us aspire to greatness, too often
we settle for second place. We want to live our lives to the fullest,
but so many of us end up just surviving. Most people find a comfort
zone, get used to it, and before long discover that all the great things
life has to offer have simply passed them by. One of the lessons I've
learned is that the very first step toward achieving spectacular results
in life is eliminating all of these excuses that keep us from achieving
our true potential."
