Current Events > Does anyone ever feel like everything you predict goes right ends up going wrong

(+) Yeah! (+)

seems to be a summary of my life.
Every single big thing I anticipate always turns out the opposite of what I anticipated or something else I anticipate.

say, I could go on a date and anticipate all different possible outcomes yet I always get one that I never expect. Or I go for a job interview all well-prepared only to get wrecked by unexpected questions...but if I go for a job interview unprepared...I'm somehow able to sail through it perfectly fine.

It's got the point where I'm just psycho-ing myself to anticipate the worst in everything, which of course isn't good. People say it's good to be confident but that seems just plain bad advice since everytime I anticipate and prepare for success, I get failure instead
