Yes, what makes a distinction between winning and losing is an ability to work with your desires to attain predefined outcomes and even exceed it! It isn’t that the lazy individuals lacks passion; they wish for many things. Yet they have nothing because they cannot or will not apply themselves to work required to take desires to reality. Have you not heard that the ne’er-do-well craves the fruit of persistence without the perseverance that gains it?  Yes, a passion without endeavour is like Rachel, remember the wife of the Patriarch Jacob, beautiful, but barren at a point in history. That’s it!!!
