In the epic war of Mahabharat, the great warrior Karna was on Duryodhan's side.
He had a very clever charioteer, Shalya. Since, Duryodhan was fighting for an evil cause, Lord Krishna secretly told Shalya "Although you have given your word to support Duryoudhan by becoming Karna's charioteer, you can still help the righteous cause by constantly, discouraging and demoralizing Karna during the battle."
Although, Karna was a great warrior, he ultimately lost the battle with Arjuna, just because he lost his confidence, due to constant demoralizing and discouragement by Shalya.
Success can not be achieved if one looses his confidence.
Self-confidence guarantees success provided the objective is morally correct.
