how to avoid becoming a loser in life

Published

on

A loser is one who has given up on life, wants to talk down other people’s dreams, has zero purpose for living and wants to make you feel demotivated and uninspired.

No one is born a loser, however, losers are created when a person experiences a major failure or hits rock bottom. We all have had this happen to us in life, but a loser is born when he or she cannot get back up again and allows circumstances to define their future. Losers are created when they become overly negative and have nothing positive in their life.

Life can change in a moment when you make a better decision. It’s this decision-making ability that allows someone to go from being a loser to being a champion.

Here is what you should avoid if you want never to become a loser:

  1. Bad dressing

No one is saying you need to wear designer tuxedos and Vera Wang dresses every day. Dressing sharp though demonstrates that you have respect for yourself and how you appear to others. Regardless of what most books say, first impressions count and how you physically appear is part of that. Learn to dress the part.

 

  1. Lack of self-control

Being in control is being disciplined. Losers let temptation lead them down a dark and weary road and then get robbed of all of their most valuable personality traits. Being in control is about having your mind in check. Your mind controls what you think, so you better master it. It’s about not reacting to all the bad stuff that shows up every day. By practicing this habit, you avoid being a loser.

 

  1. Too much time spent on the problem

Losers spend way too much time being pissed off by the problem rather than moving into the positive state of mind and getting on with building the solution. Focusing on the problem is generally done through storytelling. Losers tell made up stories to themselves and those around them about the problem.

 

  1. Zero confidence

Having no confidence repels everyone away from you. Even during tough times, you have to remain confident and have faith in everything working at. Losers don’t back themselves and are not confident which also shows in their results.

 

  1. No purpose

What creates a loser more than anything is a lack of purpose.  You must have a reason for your life. Even if you have not exactly figured that out yet, you must have an interim purpose. Attach each day to something that inspires you, and one that will help others. Not having a driving force is depressing. This negative state of living makes us unhappy. Once you start being consistently unhappy, you pick up other negative elements like a magnet.

 

  1. A belief that you deserve more

Losers think they should get more than they currently have. What you have is the result of the current action you have taken. You don’t deserve more unless you earn it and create value for someone or something. There are no shortcuts in life. If you don’t like where you are at and what you have then make a change.

 

  1. Being selfish

Losers are relentlessly selfish and only care about themselves. Trying to always get more for yourself takes away something from someone else. Where you want to get to is trying to get more by giving more.

 

  1. Being obsessed with job titles

Losers think that made up labels matter. You don’t have to own any label if you don’t want to. Better yet, you can create whatever label you want for yourself.
