So what are the telltale signs that you are a loser or that someone else is a loser?
Below are some telltale signs that you are a loser or that someone else is loser:[1]
1. Losers lack moral character and act ungodly. They lack kindness and have little respect for the truth. They lie frequently and endeavor to censor the truth. Losers are unconcerned with the matter of spiritual growth (See: The keys to spiritual growth and Christian maturity). They lead their lives as if they think they are God and always know what is best.
2. Losers have plenty of untapped potential because they rarely engage in personal development, don't engage in goal setting and rarely do anything personally challenging. They also hang around with other losers who rub off on them. See: Comfort zone and Social influence and Positive social influence
3. Losers think ignorance is bliss and lack curiosity. They lack a growth mindset and are happy with the status quo in their life. They don't believe in lifelong learning and rarely pick up a book.
4. Losers are lazy and lack self-control (And they are often fat, lazy and take poor care of their health).
5. Losers major on the minor things in life and don't have a very purposeful and meaningful life. They don't set priorities and have poor time management.
6. Losers engage in a lot of pseudo intellectual babble and have poor interpersonal skills. They can't be reasoned with. See: Rationality and Agreeableness
7. Losers are focused on problems and not solutions and engage in a lot of pointless bellyaching and complaining. See: Problem solving
8. Losers have a bad attitude and always see the negative things in life and don't focus on the positive things in life and being grateful. See: Optimism
9. Losers see all problems in their life being caused by other people and never take personal accountability. They are resistant to change in their life. See: Change management
10. Losers have a total or near total lack of openmindedness and tolerance. Losers believe their subjective opinions are facts and demand they be treated as facts.
11. Losers lack self-awareness and are unable to spot loser-like behaviors in themselves.
12. Losers lack social intelligence and cannot pick up on people indirectly/subtly telling them that they are a loser. Losers engage in denialism when people rightly tell them that they are a loser.
13. Losers are vain, arrogant, feel entitled and always believe they are right. Losers try to lift themselves up by denigrating others. See: Narcissism and Narcissistic personality disorder
14. Losers lack grit and mental toughness often give up too easily. See also: Psychological resilience
15. Losers are often gripped by fear (Fear of rejection, fear of change and other fears). See also: Assertiveness
