Each week and over the course of the fantasy football season, owners at Family Fantasy Sports are competing with one another to win games, prizes, and championships.

In life, winning is about more than just games or grades, it is about attitude. A winner always approaches life with a positive attitude, gracious and respectful to others. Below is a classic description of the winner’s approach to life. We hope you enjoy it and share it.

The loser        Is always a part of the problem

The Winner    Always has a program
The Loser        Always has an Excuse

The Winner     Says  “Let me do it for you”
The Loser        Says “Thats not my job”

The Winner    Sees an answer for every problem
The Loser        Sees a problem in every answer

The Winner     Sees a green near every sand trap
The Loser        Sees two or three sand traps near every green

The Winner    Says “It may be difficult but it’s possible”
