congratulated yourself

Have you ever congratulated yourself or someone else just a little too early?

You know like Faith Hill did at the music awards two weeks ago? Smiling and cheering when the winner was announced and starting to move towards the stage the tiniest bit then the name that was announced sank in and she realized it wasn’t her name? Yeah, she says she was just acting or fooling around but I think she really thought she won.

Ok, so you know what kind of situation I’m talking about now. Watch this video then- it’s very short - and see a very good example of why you shouldn’t celebrate until you win the race.
