– What is self-fulfilling prophecy?
In: Other
A self-fulfilling prophecy is when you make a prediction or claim of something that might happen, but then act in a way that guarantees that thing happens.
For example, you might believe that you will fail a test. As a result, you don’t study for it because why study if you are going to fail anyway. Of course, you fail the exam, and then claim that your prediction was right all along. In fact, it was your behaviour due to the prediction that led you to failing the test, not the prediction itself.
