I want you all to confess how you made it to the winner circle. I think, for a long time I was a loser. I didn't want to be, but my attitude was hindering me, and it made my whole package of what is me stink. Everyone knows the cornerstones of success, but very few actually drive for them 100% day in day out. You have to be SUPER talented and have great fortune to ever make it if you don't follow those rules, and even then it's a stretch. Most people try some, but give up early, so they think they didn't have it, when they just needed to be more persistent on their dreams.
Now, when did the shift happen to you? I think mine happened.. about a.. year ago maybe. I was doing a lot of searching as to what I want, all I knew was that I'm going to get it, I just need to focus on something first. Now, it's starting to roll in.. slowly, but steadily. And I'm just starting, this is a building thing, step by step, getting more hungry, more confident, working more angles, making double and triple checks.
From what I have gathered is, that sometimes a bit of weirdness goes a long way. The.. it's a weird mix really. Hard for me to explain, but from my postings, you would not think my passion is mathematics and computer science. But what that requires is some sort of organized thinking and logical thinking patterns. When you bring a bit of weirdness into it, well you got me. So what's my key? The combination. I mean, there's fools luck, which I definitely have. But you have to be a bit out there to have it. It's like drunk luck. Drunk people never get hurt, everyone else does. From being super broke and not being able to chase my dream to chasing the dream, getting a career started already and finally maybe meeting someone who I think is special and we like each other, with a low rent nice single flat room and.. what can I say.. lady fortune has been on my side lately, and a lot!! 
Tell me your recipe, and how your shift happened from the loser side to the winner side. And yes I made a thread about me, because ultimately, I'm an egomaniac. But hey, better that than sadistic satan worshipper, right?

How did I become a winner?
By posting on Apolyton OT, of course.

yeah it's very real.. and it's worse because they can't control what you are doing, and they want you to have the best in what ever it is, and it's even worse if they know you have the skills and all, but something just isn't going right.. or maybe just pure lack of luck. It's the worst. It's like one of my friends.. he's been trying to get into this school for 3 times already, and now this will be his 4th attempt. This means, he's been dreaming but not doing for 4 years. I had the same pressure when I was trying to get in, but my buddy is really having it the worst.. it's like the 'be factory worker for the rest of your life making **** money and nto liking it' or 'live your dream'. It's just so raw and tough, and last time he got SO close and blew it at the last second so.. it sucked. I hope he makes it this time. I've been calling him all the time, making sure he studies and is doing the right things. He's not even drinking for like two months, only studying and trying to get in. IF he fails this time.. man I don't know.. but on the other hand, if he makes it, we're going to have a helluva party!!!
