Is having a greater psychology the requirement for having success, I would have to say that this is true. When you want something in life, how you think about it will determine how well you perform in a given task. So how do you think about things?

And to me this is not the right attitude, what you want to do instead is entertain the worst outcome while acting on the very best that could happen. psychology of success
