Layers of trust in how things will go (take this with a grain of salt):
| Layer | How you felt | If you win, it's | If you lose, it's |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 | you knew you would win | "business as always" | "because someone rigged the game" |
| 5 | you had great odds | "a given" | "politics and bullshit" |
| 4 | you had a chance of winning | "your hard work" | "a tough loss" |
| 3 | not great but not fully out of it | "luck on my side" | "me not them" |
| 2 | you had a slim chance of winning | "like winning the jackpot" | "a given" |
| 1 | you had no chance of winning | "God's will" | "business as always" |
