Winner
One day partner asked me an open-ended question as he always does.
"Tell me, what makes one a winner?" he asked.
"It's difficult to answer. So many things - ability, application, focus, deligence to name a few."
"You are right, but you missed the most important one."
"Which one?"
"Courage. Many capable people are underachievers because they have fear for failure, they are strongly risk averse, they don't dare to do things differently. They suck."
"So you mean ability doesn't count at all?"
"No, I am simple saying courage counts more."
