“Expecting the best means that you put your whole heart (i.e. the central essence of your personality) into what you want to accomplish. People are defeated in life not because of lack of ability, but for lack of wholeheartedness. They do not wholeheartedly expect to succeed. Their heart isn't in it, which is to say, they themselves are not fully given.” PeopleWantHeartMeanWholeMotivationalGivenAbilityPersonalitySucceedEssenceAccomplishWhat You WantExpectingDefeatedWholeheartedlyWholeheartednessExpecting The Best Book:The Power Of Positive Thinking For Young People Source: The Power Of Positive Thinking For Young People
“I am pessimistic, I think that's the best way to be, because if you're always expecting the best - the best doesn't always happen. Nine times out of 10 it doesn't. I'm surprised when things go smoothly. I don't know what's wrong with being pessimistic - unless you are such a pessimist that you don't do anything.” IfsThinkingKnowsWayHappensNineBest WayExpectingPessimistPessimisticExpecting The Best Author:Karl Pilkington
“I'm very aware, but I'm very naïve. When you are really naïve and expecting safety and expecting the best, you don't feel you're taking risks. You can get smacked a little, but usually it works out pretty well. I would say that, as much as you can instill your open-minded naivety, if you're basically open minded, then you can do damn near anything.” IfsFeelsWellsLittlesCan DoRiskSafetyWork OutDamnExpectingOpen MindOpen MindedTaking RisksInstillNaivetyExpecting The Best Author:Shirley MacLaine
“Perhaps the greatest charity comes when we are kind to each other, when we don’t judge or categorize someone else, when we simply give each other the benefit of the doubt or remain quiet. Charity is accepting someone’s differences, weaknesses, and shortcomings; having patience with someone who has let us down; or resisting the impulse to become offended when someone doesn’t handle something the way we might have hoped. Charity is refusing to take advantage of another’s weakness and being willing to forgive someone who has hurt us. Charity is expecting the best of each other” WayGivingKindMightDifferencesHurtAcceptingKindnessDoubtAcceptanceWillingJudgingQuietBenefitsForgivenessWeaknessAdvantagePatienceForgivingCharityDisappointmentHandleImpulseJudgementExpectingOffendedShortcomingsResistingOffenceHaving PatienceBenefit Of The DoubtCategorizationPositive ExpectationsExpecting The Best Author:Marvin J.
