Find yourself ready for a letdown? Think it will be easier to accept failure if you prepare for that? Well you’re right, it will make failure easier. But that’s not the goal, is it? The goal is to succeed. In order to do that, your entire body must be 100 percent geared towards succeeding, and especially your brain. When you start preparing for an unfavorable outcome, your body is being told it’s okay to fail. And when your body knows it’s okay to fail, it will not try as hard, plain and simple.
