The successful people have a different mindset. They don’t take things to their head like many normal people do. Their focus is strong and their dealing is very clear.
On the other hand there are people who are addicted – they like to keep hiding themselves from the people and they are strange and weird. Their dealing is ambiguous and dishonest.
It means that successful people and addicted people have different mindsets.
But indeed the characteristics of each person who is addicted to gambling are different because people who are addicted to online gambling will hide their activities in gambling while people who are addicted to offline gambling may be seen visiting the casino every day.
But the essence of everything must be the same they will always gamble and use other money to gamble and satisfy their desires.
And there is a tendency for them to be secretive when it comes to the activities they do behind their backs so it doesn't appear that they like to gamble.
I think this is one of those things that makes very difficult for the average person to identify if someone is addicted to gambling, after all if you see someone that is gambling you do not immediately assume that person is addicted to it, in fact you will come to the opposite conclusion as most people are able to control their gambling, however if you could take a look at their financial statements or at the accumulated time they spend gambling each day then you may get a better idea of their problem, but since this is not possible then it is easy for a lot of people to miss the signs that their relative or friend is having some gambling issues.
