We advance on our journey only when we face our goal, when we are confident and believe we are going to win out.
Margaret's Page on Tranquility & Words of Wisdom ---- words of "Expectancy"
We tend to get what we expect
We usually get what we anticipate
We find what we expect to find, and we receive what we ask for.
Life is largely a matter of expectation.
Where to go for happiness
I must find my way
Open door to freedom
Heart decides to stay

Years of time and moments
Somehow seem to fade
Dreams of all my yesterdays
Within a step betrayed.

Decisions just a battle
This spirit has to give
Knowing which direction
To take so I can live.

Should I go beyond this door
To know what can begin
Or should I stay for comfort
This dilemma is so grim.

Only I can choose this path
The one that makes me see
Whatever joy beyond this door
It must begin with me.

Faith to know the path in life
These thoughts are so concealed
Within the heart my spirit knows
These truths must be revealed.

For, he that expects nothing shall not be disappointed, but he that expects much - if he lives and uses that in hand day by day - shall be full to running over.
If you paint in your mind a picture of bright and happy expectations, you put yourself into a condition conducive to your goal.
Think and feel yourself there!
To achieve any aim in life, you need to project the end result ---
Think of the elation, the satisfaction, the joy!
Carrying the ecstatic feeling will bring the desired goal into view.
Sooner or later, those who win are those who think they can.
Hope ... is the companion of power, and the mother of success; for whoso hopes strongly has within him the gift of miracles.
