Right Side of the Self-Fulfilling Prophecy

Henry Ford, the founder of Ford Motors, once said “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t – you’re right,” In other words, what we tell ourselves sets up our path for success or failure.I remember times in my life where my belief of the future was bleak, and of course, it turned out the way I saw it through my own perception. When we have a belief, we alter our behavior and thoughts to ensure that prophecy is fulfilled. When we look at the self-fulfilling prophecy, our perceptions become our reality. We also have the ability to use the self-fulfilling prophecy to our advantage by living on the right side of the self-fulfilling prophecy by having a positive look at a situation, versus the negative. There is no guarantee that things will turn out exactly the way you want, but it will open the door to opportunity and growth, versus falling into the victim mentality. When you look at your situation or life, what side of the self-fulfilling prophecy are you living?
