Consider 'winner' as being shorthand for: "someone who, given the right environment, timing, and support, can take over the world. Given two of the three, they will manifest the third."
It's just something you are. A bottom of the org chart stinky sysadmin doesn't just wake up one day and have the personality and determination of a world class CEO.
In a more grim outlook, it's genetic. The disconnect is when people want to be 'winners' but are, at heart, bottom of the org chart stinky sysadmins. You can work your way up to lifestyle business, but the next step of multi-billion pants in the air growth company is probably out of reach.
