Here's a really good web site to begin to help you understand the question better and give you a good direction on where to take it:
http://info.med.yale.edu/psych/3s/self_schema.html
If you beileve that you cannot do something, you lack necessary abilities or you will fail, this reduces your ability to succeed in any task. It often becomes a "self-fulfilling prophecy."
If you don't understand this concept, Google it.
I hope this helps. Thanks for asking,
