When you hear the word "loser" you think of awful people with no ambition in life. But that's not always the case, sometimes they are incredibly talented, charming, and fun people to be around. Sometimes they're your captains, your leaders, and the people of influence on your team. They can sometimes even look like winners...until you delve a little bit deeper. Both winners and losers are skilled, but losers have an innate quality that will eat away at the fabric of your team.
Three Traits Shared by Losers:
Indifference: They're the folks you look at and think, "if only they would only work hard, they'd be so good." But they won't work hard, because they're fine with just getting by.
Selfishness: Losers are selfish, it's all about them. If they do something great in a game, they're excited and seeking out high fives. But if they make a mistake, they withdraw and reject any efforts by their teammates to console them. These are the players that make it difficult to maintain any sort of team chemistry.
Disrespect: While winners spend tons of time studying film and finding out how to be a better athlete, losers slide by on natural talent. As the rest of the team is scouring over their scouting reports pre-game, the loser sits in the locker room texting their friends...they don't respect the game or the effort that is essential to become good at it.
