When you are trying to achieve something hard, do you need any more challenges to make it harder? Do you need to fight off doubt to achieve your goal if you didn’t have to? Would everything not be easier to achieve if you only fully believed you could do it, whether from the start or from somewhere along the way? Those are the reasons why you should believe, before you achieve.

Bring Solutions, Not Problems
When you identify problems, do you generally also offer options for solutions? Or do you tend to just identify the problems and see what others, or you and others, can do about them?
AND not OR
Does constantly wanting more always have to constitute greed? Can it not be about excellence to be better? Can it not be about kindness to allow others to benefit more, or more others to benefit, unlike greed that benefits the self?
Only Plans C to Z are Optional
How often do you have a back-up plan to things you do, whether all things or just things with some consequence? That back-up plan doesn’t have to be extensive, just that you know what you’ll do if what you planned didn’t turn out to be feasible or get you what you wanted. Now, how often do you have more than one back-up plan?
Tests are Reality’s Lucky Charms
What do you think of tests? From academic or otherwise formal tests, to life, metaphorical, and informal tests. You probably don’t have one answer for them all, like I don’t, but do you generally view them favourably or not?
