If you think you'll fail, you'll fail.
If you think you'll lose the battle, chances are you'll be right.
So I went rockclimbing today. For some reason, I was slightly fearful of heights today. I'm can usually scale the walls without fear. But today was different. I didnt climb that well today. I used a lot of my energy gripping the handholds harder than necessary and I didnt really trust my feet on the footholds. Perhaps that was because I rented shoes today. I cant find my rockclimbing shoes! What happened to them? =( Anyway, every few seconds I had to tell myself that height of the wall was only an illusion and there was nothing to fear as there was a rope securing me. Rockclimbing is such a psychological thing I tell you. Its a representation of life really. Tell yourself you can do it, and you can. Tell yourself you can't and chances are, you can't. It's a mind game really.
