Prove things to yourself

An interesting phenomenon occurs when students attempt to prove others wrong.

When some students feel they cannot accomplish a task, having an adult or peer tell them they are incapable of something reinforces this idea and causes them to internalize this belief.

Other students are told they cannot accomplish something and use that as motivation to do otherwise.

Similarly, we see cases in the healthcare field where this also occurs.

Writer Bernie Siegel laments how he would “See people who die a few minutes after a doctor tells them there is no hope of a cure. They give up and go. Others get angry and find joy in proving the doctor wrong. Something within them is challenged and hopeful. Hope is the divine motivator.”

Some people wish to prove others wrong, while others want to prove something to themself.

All that matters is that you keep going.
