Many people are not happy with their life, because of their current lifestyle, relationship with others, health or financial situation.

A sad fact is, many choose to do nothing but complain, they keep saying things like, why am I so unfortunate? Why wasn’t I born rich? If only I’m more handsome/pretty, my life will be different, etc.

It might sound a bit harsh, but in my opinion, that’s what losers will do.

You have to understand that nothing will change, in fact it’ll only get worse, until you fix your mind and decide to say “Enough is enough” and take action.

It’s common sense, but most still won’t take the leap, although they are suffering already.

If you ask them why, they will usually make the following excuses, and now I want to pinpoint them out and debunk them one by one, so that there is no excuse, and you have to get started working.

Excuse#1: What if it doesn’t work?

Hard work doesn’t always guarantee success.

It’s one of the biggest fears that prevent us from making a move, because no one likes our effort going into waste.
