51 Excuses that Failures often Quote


If…
People who don’t succeed have one distinguishing trait in common. They know all the reasons for failure, and their alibis are the lack of achievement. Some of these alibis are clever, and a few of them are justifiable by the facts. The world wants to know only one thing – Have you achieved success? A character analyst compiled a list of the most commonly used alibis. As you read the list, examine yourself carefully, and determine how many of these alibis, if any are own property. (Source: Napolean Hill, Think and Grow Rich)
