"Whether You Think You Can or Can't, You're Right"--Henry Ford
Can you paraphrase the quote in a simpler way?
Thanks |

If you think you can (do something), you're right - you can (do it)!
If you think you can't (do something), you're right - you can't (do it)!
He's basically saying that belief in yourself (or a lack of it) is a self-fulfilling prophecy - if you believe you can do something, that belief and confidence means you'll achieve your goal. If you believe you can't do it, you're doomed to fail.
So whatever you believe will end up being correct  |
