Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The statement I work well with my hands is a positive thought. It focuses on a strength and promotes the expectation that the individual will succeed. All other options are examples of negative thinking that create expectations for problems and failure.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Positive self-talk leads to the expectation that one can and will succeed. A positive mental attitude can be learned by replacing negative thinking with positive thinking.
