How do losers become WINNERS?
Can you win?  Absolutely, you have the opportunity to be a winner every time you step on the playing field.  What makes someone become a winner?  Not, just one time, but EVERY time.  The answer: LOSING.  I know, it sounds kind of ridiculous doesn't it?  But, it is very true.  You have to learn HOW to win.  The only way is through experience.  The more times you put yourself in the arena with a chance to win, the closer you are getting.  You will learn every time you fail, and eventually each of those failing experiences will teach you enough that you become a winner.  And then you win a second time and a third time and so on.  Eventually, you learn so much from all of those wins, while still learning from the failures, that you become good enough to create a pattern of winning more than losing.  But every winner, starts off a loser.  The only difference between winners and losers is, the winners are paying attention and learning as they lose.  Winners are losers who believed in themselves after they lost.  Believe every time that you step onto the playing field that you are going to win and when you get to that point in the contest where the outcome will be decided, remember what happened in THAT moment all the times before.  Now, go do what is necessary to WIN in that moment.  Maybe you will win this time, but if you don't:  Did you learn anything?

Float Like A Butterfly & Sting Like A Bee . . . . What's My Name? . . . . The Stage Is Set . . . .

Move gracefully all over the place, never be exactly where your opponent expects you to be.  Then, when you make your move, spring to the attack and go for the kill before your opponent has time to react.  When the competition is over, your opponent will know your name . . . . and never forget it.  The stage is set for you to become the greatest . . . . Are you a "bad" man?  Can you float like a butterfly and sting like a bee?  Can you make your opponent remember your name?  Can you become the GREATEST?  And if you get knocked down, how quickly will you rise?  If your opponent scores an early victory, will you learn from it and  come back to punish them for it?  RUMBLE YOUNG MAN, RUMBLE!

LEAD, FOLLOW, OR GET OUT OF THE WAY!
I read an article this morning about a famous businessman that paid a visit yesterday to Oglethorpe University, where I graduated in 2003. Ted Turner is the man of which I am speaking. Even though he has been relatively dormant in the public news since selling his creations CNN, TBS, the Cartoon Network, and the other Turner Networks, he is still very much a leader.  Did you know that he has fulfilled three-quarters of his $1 billion commitment to the United Nations in 1997? Did you know he also wrote a $32 million check to the U.S. Government so they could pay their debt to the United Nations? In fact, he is so much of a leader that several leadership studies and surveys have Ted Turner as a defined type of leader.
One of these leadership studies refers to Ted's leadership style as "The Lion." I really like this title. As a brother and former chapter president of Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity at Oglethorpe University, I am fond of the symbolism of the lion as it was our "mascot."  This article describes The Lion as:
the natural-born leader. This is the kind of business person who has always been a leader, by personality, and probably always will be. Ted Turner, for example, of Turner Broadcasting in Atlanta, has been known for having great self-motivation, despite the criticism of others. On his desk, Turner has a plaque with the old U.S. Army phrase: Lead, follow or get out of the way.  It is not just business sense or a certain strategy that has inspired people to follow Turner, but seemingly his overall desire to move forward and take no prisoners. The Lion leader is not afraid to take risks and is always at the front of the pack.
 I consider myself a "Lion" in terms of my leadership style and personality.  I guess that is why I have always admired Mr. Turner for his broadcasting creations, successful ownership of the Atlanta Braves, philanthropic attitude, and contributions to putting Atlanta "on the map."  While I have yet to accomplish anything worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as Ted Turner, I am optimistic that the best of Grant Reed has yet to be written. Even that optimistic statement is a Lion characteristic.  The same article goes on to explain:
This kind of leader is associated with great victory, but also with great defeat – an all-or-nothing attitude. Many distributors who have started their own businesses can relate to the great risk of stepping out into the unknown without much (if any) security. Winston Churchill could also be characterized as a Lion leader, having said, “History will be kind to me, for I intend to write it.”
The only way to sum up this post is to leave with another quote about the Lion from the great Orson Welles: "It is better to live one day as a lion, that a hundred years as a sheep!"
