Book excerpt: What is a winner? Being a winner probably means different things to different people but to most people, being a winner means that you get the things that you want most in life. Being a winner means more than just picking a lucky lottery ticket, it means that you have improved yourself and your environment to ensure that your luck is good and your chances of success are high. Being a winner does not mean that you are better than somebody is, it means that you have achieved your goals; you have won the path to your destiny. Sounds too good to be true? Well, it is not. You can be a winner, take a gamble on yourself, and find out how lucky you can be in your own life. Stop wishing for things to happen your way, and work towards it.
