Personal Experience
I would like to start telling you that when I was reading this book I realized that many times I have acted as a whiner instead of winner.Keith Cameron Smith mentions the phrase:
If it´s going to be it´s up to meI am complete agree with that because in my case, seven years ago contracted a bacterium in the stomach which caused me a significant loss of weight, I went from 130 pounds to 90 and was a very sad experience for me since until today I have only managed to recover 20 of the 40 pounds I I lost, I feel unsatisfied with my physical appearance, I suffered a lot because my metabolism is very fast, I lose weight quickly but it takes a lot to gain.
However about three years ago I found a way to gain weight by going to the gym because with the exercises I gained muscle mass and I could reach 100 pounds to 110 the slow process but it is effective but I am very undisciplined and I stop going to gym and makes me feel like whiner because I know that if for three years I had not stopped going to the gym and exercise and I would have recovered the weight I lost because of the disease.
Winners can have what they want.
The whiners want what they do not have.
This point especially called my attention because it is mentioned that many times we want something but we do not want to pay the price to get it, if we want something we must be disciplined and constant in the struggle to obtain it and not wait for things to come to us magically.
We have to stop making excuses, we have to start thinking big to achieve great things!
