3. 1. Lack of Persistence
More people fail not because they lack
knowledge or talent but because they quit.
The total secret of success lies in two words,
persistence and resistance. Persist in what
resistance
must be done and resist what ought not to be
done.
www.exploreHR.org 3
4. When problems seem
insurmountable, quitting seems
to be the easiest way out……

5. Winners are struck but not
destroyed. We all have had
setbacks in life. Failing does not
mean we are failures.

6. 2. Lack of Conviction
People who lack conviction
take the middle of the road;
and guess what happens in
the middle of the road?
You get run over.
www.exploreHR.org 6
7. People without
conviction do not take
a stand. They go along
stand
to get along because
they lack confidence
and courage.
www.exploreHR.org 7
8. They conform in order
to get accepted even
when they know that
what they are doing is
wrong. They behave
like part of a herd.

9. 3. Rationalizing
Winners may analyze but never
rationalize. That is a loser's game.
Losers always have a book full of
excuses to tell you why they could not.

11. • I'm unlucky
• I'm born under the wrong stars
• I'm not good looking
• I don't have contacts
• I don't have enough money
• The economy is bad
• If only I had the opportunity
• If only I didn't have a family
The list can go on and
on…….

13. Some people live and learn, and
learn
some only live. Wise people learn
from their mistakes.
www.exploreHR.org 13
14. People who do not learn lessons from
history are doomed. Failure is a
teacher if we have the right attitude.
Failure is a detour, not a dead end.
It is a delay, not a defeat. Experience
is the name we give to our mistakes.

15. 5. Lack of Discipline
Anyone who has
accomplished anything
worthwhile has never
done so without
discipline.
www.exploreHR.org 15
16. Discipline takes self-
control, sacrifice, and
avoiding distractions and
temptations. It means
staying focused. Steam
does not move the engine
unless it is confined.
Niagara Falls would not
generate power unless it
were harnessed.

17. Poor self-esteem is a
lack of self-respect and
self-worth. It leads to
abuse of one's self and
others.
6. Poor Self-Esteem
www.exploreHR.org 17
18. People with low self-esteem are
constantly looking for identity. They are
trying to find themselves. One's self is
not to be found but to be created.
www.exploreHR.org 18
19. Idleness and laziness are consequences
of poor self-esteem and so is making
excuses.
Idleness is like rust that eats into the most
brilliant metal.
www.exploreHR.org 19
21. A fatalistic attitude prevents people
from accepting responsibility for their
position in life. They attribute success
and failure to luck. They resign
themselves to their fate.
www.exploreHR.org 21
22. They believe and accept the
predestined future written in
their horoscope or stars, that
regardless of their effort
whatever has to happen will
happen.
www.exploreHR.org 22
23. Hence they never put in any effort and
complacency becomes a way of life. They
wait for things to happen rather than make
them happen.
