This is strictly a piece of folklore with no basis in fact, but sometimes people like to think that if they try something twice unsuccessfully, they are likely to make it work, or to succeed, on their third attempt, because three is somehow a magic number. Sometimes people do succeed on their third attempt, of course, but it's not because the third time is a charm, it just works out that way sometimes.

It depends what they are trying to do, and how good they are at doing it.
