What is your take on people who make excuses for themselves or for others and say something like "...oh it's only human nature..."?

Do you feel that humans should accept their limitations and weaknesses or should they endeavour to surpass those limitations and eliminate those weaknesses?

To me anyone who gives such an excuse is a loser who isn't willing to try and overcome their weaknesses. I lost sight in my right eye a few years and I felt uncoordinated, out of balance when it first happened, but I worked hard to overcome my disability and now I can do as much as any other person who can see with both their eyes.

When I was in highschool, my grades weren't good and I wasn't doing well in classes but a friend of mine encouraged and helped me out and I was able to get excellent grades. He taught me that if I had a hobby or interest, then I should be either the best or the worst at it because being in the middle is mediocre. And I'm a person who doesn't like to lose so I decided I would be the best at everything.
