    Self-fulfilling prophecies, a term coined by psychologist Robert Merton, function under the idea that prophecies in of themselves have no power, but nonetheless come to pass solely due to a person’s belief in it. This phenomenon suggests that prophecies have no otherworldly or spiritual power, but are rather purely psychological.

This occurrence demonstrates the impact of the perception of our fate. Whether the prophecy involves rising up to an impossible challenge, or failure and ruin; these perceptions can greatly impact one’s decisions based on how susceptible…
