You can but you won't because you think you can't

What's worse than failing?
Knowing that you can do it right after you fail.

I slack all the time because I believe that there are other things more exciting than studying. What I did not believe, is that studying will give me what I deserve.


"THE MAN WHO THINKS HE CAN:
If you think you are beaten, you are,
If you think that you dare not, you don't,
If you'd like to win, but you think you can't,
It's almost certain you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you've lost,
For out in the world you'll find,
Success begins with a fellow's will,
It's all in the state of mind
.If you think you are outclassed, you are,
You've got to think high to rise,
You've got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.
Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man,
But soon or late the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can."
Arnold Palmer
"If you believe you can, you probably can. If you believe you won't, you most assuredly won't. Belief is the ignition switch that gets you off the launching pad." Denis Waitly

Nyeh, it happens to me on almost all of my exams. Haha. Things like, "I should have blah this, I shouldn't have blah that!" Get used to it, for it won't kill you anyway. ^___^
