It is interesting to see how the judgmental mind extends itself. It may begin by complaining 'What a lousy serve,' then extend to 'I'm serving badly today.' After a few more 'bad' serves, the judgement may become further extended to 'I have a terrible serve.' Then 'I'm a lousy tennis player,' and finally 'I'm no good.' First the mind judges the event, then groups events, then identifies with the combined event, finally judges itself. As a result, what usually happens is that these self-judgements become self-fulfilling prophecies.
