Self fulfilling prophesy happens when we make a prediction about ourselves, someone, or something, which in turn causes us to act in ways that ensure this prediction comes true. Essentially, If you believe it, you can make it a reality.
Pay attention to your thoughts and beliefs; they have great power and can make many things come true. You become what you think about.
"When you form opinions or expectations about someone or something, your subconscious mind will lead your behaviors in ways that make that opinion or expectation a reality.”
For instance, a person seeking work opportunities and promotion but lacks confidence in their abilities feels like they will do terribly and won't get the job. This belief subconsciously results in a series of events that makes this predict come true. The morning of the interview this person may over sleep and find themselves in a rush. Guilt and other negative emotions will lead this person into feelings of low self-confidence and doubt of their qualifications for the job which will distract them from being fully present during the interview.
This person may fail to see that their thoughts and behaviors have produced the outcome they expected or feared, which was, they would do terribly at the interview and not get the job.
