What does it take to be a Winner?

Sherri Graf / IMAGINE COLLEGE COACHING

It is the ordinary days.  The ordinary days are where the winner does his/her training.  In the middle of the mundane, the winner chooses to develop his/her character and persevere when those around him are getting bored and losing steam.  

My Personal Motto on those days is : Get up, Dress up and Show up!  It is on these days that I have to talk myself into being in the winners circle.  Winners aren’t born that way….they become that way.  

The good news is, you have the power to be a winner.  People around you can’t make you a winner, your bank account doesn’t reflect if you are a winner.  Your grades, your job, your status….none of these prove if you are a winner.  You see, some people get to those places by means that aren’t characterized by a winner.  The definition for this person is IMPOSTER.
The TRUE Winner reaches his/ her goals by the strength of character they possess on the inside.  They start with the big picture in mind.  They picture themselves in a bright future.
