Expect

"If you expect the best, you will be the best. Learn to use one of the most powerful laws in this world; change your mental habits to belief instead of disbelief. Learn to expect, not to doubt. In so doing, you bring everything into the realm of possibility."
Dr. Norman Vincent Peale

What do you expect? Most of us expect things to happen that are the same or similar to what they have experienced in the past. This is why our lives don't change very much, and why we fall into familiar patterns, having the same things happen over and over again. Sometimes we expect things to happen because someone else expected them to happen or even because we saw or heard it in the media. But things don't have to be that way.

You can use your imagination to visualize good things happening. If you do that consistently enough, you will get to the point that you beleive they are possible, and then you get to the point where you beleive they will happen. You can change your mental habits to beleif instead of disbeleif. You can learn to expect instead of doubting. This is the point at which miracles happen.

If you expect the best, you will have the best. You will show by example how you should be treated by others. The best things will come to you without you chasing after them with exhaustion and frustration. And if you expect yourself to be the best, you will be the best. You will find real success.
