• Why is it so hard for so many to realize that winners are usually the ones who work harder, work longer, and as a result, perform better?

• Why are there so many who want to build up the weak by tearing down the strong?

• Why is it that so many nonattainers are quick to criticize, question, and belittle the attainers?

• Why is it so hard for us to understand that we cannot antagonize and positively influence at the same time?

• Why is it so much easier to complain about the things we do not have than to make the most of and appreciate the things we do have?
