Please don't judge from the title. I have the reasons why.
I always expect to be successful, but I have a plan if I fail. For example, in January, I took the AWS DevOps Professional certification. I set the expectation that I would succeed because I was well prepared. However, I also set the expectation that I might fail and set the plan for how to handle that. Fortunately, I passed the exam. On the other hand, I was not well prepared for AWS Solutions Architect Professional. I had set the expectation that I would fail. Unfortunately, my expectation was right even though the score was more than my goal.
I never think I should be successful. I always set another expectation or another plan if I will fail.
What do you think? If you have another opinion, feel free to comment here. I want to hear some advice from you.
