Will I fail anything if I think I will fail?

Question

Anything that is sports games, and exams. If I already think I will fail before those thing I will fail? Even the exam is extremely hard and in sports like Basketball, when the team is against the strongest team, if I already think I will lose and imposible to beat, I will lose? No matter what I have to think I will win or I will past the exam to win? Even I am not smart?

Answer 1

Thinking your going to fail isn't going to help you win but it doesn't mean you will definitly fail either.  The other team for example might also think they are going to fail and someone has to win.  I'd say its probably better though if you can talk yourself into believing in yourself.

Answer 2

attitude is a big part of winning.  you're smarter than you think and if you believe that, you'll learn more and be a more accomplished person, no matter what you attempt.
