　　My wife and I go to the theater whenever we can．But before we buy tickets, we like to know if the play is good or bad．When a new play opens．We usually read the newspaper to get information about it．Last week a new play opened at the theater．The newspaper story said it was very interesting so we decided to go on Saturday night．

　　My wife took a long time to make up her mind what to wear and we left our house a little late．By the time we got to the theater, the first act had already begun．We were sorry we missed part of the play, because the rest of it was very funny．The newspaper had been right．It was very good．

　　After the play was over, we met some friends we hadn’t seen for a long time．They wanted to go to a night club．It had been many years since my wife and I had gone dancing, but I finally agreed．By the time we got home, it was about two o’clock in the morning．I’m got used to staying out so late and I was extremely tired．

　　When I was younger．I didn’t have the money to go out for an evening like this．Now I can afford it．I don’t have the energy to really enjoy it．

When something goes wrong，it can be very satisfying to say，“Well, it’s so-and-so’s fault. ”or “I know I’m late，but it’s not my fault；the car broke down. ” It is probably not your fault，but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation，you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.

Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you  need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame  the person. Ask to work with a different person, or  don’t rely on the person. You should accept that the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.

This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is. ” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stop on for success.
