Expecting? What?


"We love to expect, and when expectation is either disappointment or gratified, we want to be expecting again."

Samuel Johnson
18th century British author

Anticipation is often better than having what is anticipated.

How do you use that to your advantage in business?

How do you deal with it when you can't?

  1. Before now I never thought how fine the line is between feeling satisfied and disappointed with what we achieve in life. You could get exactly what you set out to get and feel that you hadn't.

  2. You're right Sonya. That happens a lot because not enough time and thought has gone into defining goals. When they are achieved, if things don't appear like you thought they would it may well be because the wrong goal was established.
