Topic: Raise your expectations, but lower your anticipations (Read 315 times)

Well it also depends on luck, not all of the business small or big businesses become successful most of them failed it is maybe because of greed and maybe people who are newbie in businesses only got envy to the old one and without experience the start making a business because of greed that is why they end up lossing they expect too much and predict too much and fell like they can do it that is why they got failed.

Nowadays, having a successful business has not been an easy task, especially if the person lives in a country with economic difficulties and a government that does not give much incentive to small businesses. So, even if people study a lot, have a lot of knowledge, and place high expectations on the business, they can still fail and go bankrupt. My advice is that when people are making an investment or business, they should not put feelings into it, things like expectations, love, being optimistic, they should not put these things in their heads. They should only think about the data that is in front of them and make decisions based on this. And always make decisions without putting feelings into it.

When you are into something I feel like you need all the moltivation you can get because their is always a lot of disappointment that comes through imagination so you have to create another thought to counter this particular thought from your mind or your head. And that is one of the ways that you can even improve that is if you succeed in the countering, people don't want to take risk and I feel something that not taking risk is like putting your self in a shell, and we need to break out of that shell to do better and also to be able to move forward, I love risk anyone that gambles will definitely love risk but not that you will know that this particular risk will not take you anywhere and you will still want to take it is just foolishness and people are always doing it and that is what is making me angry on how some people are taking their risk, and they just need to learn about how they can manage their risk if they have not understood it yet.

That is still a good situation but on the other hand too much expectation but not accompanied by effort and motivation in the end actually makes expectations come to naught.
We take the example of investing because when beginners start investing, their expectations will not be far from instant profits and this actually creates a situation where when other possibilities where the market starts to fluctuate and their expectations do not go according to their wishes, it will actually bring up other prejudices against the investment progress they are making.

Not a few people have wild expectations of bitcoin where they expect big profits in a short time but don't want to see the risks they have which in the end actually makes their situation worse and not even a few people who quit the investment in bitcoin they did even though it was still experiencing losses.
In short, expectations are good enough but we need to see and know the limits of our expectations and of course connect this with all the possibilities that exist so that our expectations can trigger motivation for this to happen.

There is no difference, if you take the time to look at some online dictionaries you will see that expectation and anticipation are synonyms, and while I understand what the OP was trying to say, the terms they used are the same, and even if they were not they are too similar to most people so they could have used terms that are more easily understood so their point was easier to understand and no clarification was needed.

I am pretty sure that's not the same thing. Dude was raised in Belgium football system and then become a football player, many actually do that, and not like he won anything with Belgium anyway, won at premier league which is nice, so did many others, he isn't the only one.

What he needs to remember is that City has been winning for years now, and been good even before he became a coach, he won one with them, the whole "don't shoot" funny stuff, and still winning even to this day, so there are many that won with City not just him, and at the same time there is only one bayern munich job, only one head coach, so it's not a whole 20+ player team, and he got there without showing any type of success beforehand, which is why people think he can't do it. Not that he won't, we do not know, this is Bayern, even I could make them win the league if I get some lucky games, you can too, this is Bayern we are talking about they are the best team, but he certainly doesn't deserve the job.

Nice one I like the fact that you were able to elaborate the two distinctive feature but mostly life depends on this two criteria  but you made mention of expectation being an action while anticipations it's about results, so what's the point you said one should lower their anticipations but rather raise or increas their expectations. I think you need to talk more on that aspect cause I can't really place it very well but in most cases the both are needed especially in the aspect of investing yeah I get the fact that one's expectations can be high in regards to the outcome they prefer but sometimes it doesn't come out as plan or how you strategise but it's nothing to worry about because surely there would be a successful inputs in time to come so this is why when expectations comes in anticipation energise it.

Basically, in everything that has a profitable opportunity, there will always be a potential for loss, but as you said, there are differences in the level of risk of possible losses, and there are also several other factors that can cause increased risk such as mistakes in making decisions. The point is, regardless of the type of business, whether it is in the world of investment or a business that runs physically, of course the risk will always be there, and as you said that we as business actors can only try and do everything we think is best to remain profitable or increase profit opportunities, and one thing I will say is that in business, don't just think about the profits but also think about the risks, simply you will be able to get bigger profits if you know about the various ways that are useful for minimizing risk. We will never know what will happen in the future, even though for example now you are in a very good situation in your business but that phase will not always be able to last as you expect, the possibility of a setback is very possible, so there is nothing wrong with putting hope but you must always be aware of the various possibilities that are not desired so that disappointment is not too significant.

What you said is right and a must but it is sad that there are still people who enter with less or no knowledge at all on their head. We know that there are no strict rules and no one is forced to be like that but it is still for our own sake/goodness. If we know what we are doing, it is also normal to expect and anticipate but it shouldn't be done in a greater level.

Lastly, we must also be aware of the bad stuffs that can happen to us and we must learn to accept it even if it was hard because that is just how things goes sometimes. This space is so volatile, so our emotions should be the same volatile too, though maybe there is some exception for those who are very long in this space because they might be immune already with what they see.

It is common but it is annoying at the same time. For those who lack in patience, they can do something about it like they won't expect positively anymore and they can even expect negatively by default, so that when they are right, they will have some sense of achievement. I know that sounds weird but I think it happens for real. If in case their expectation haven't been met and the outcome is positive, they will still be glad about it, so they have nothing to lose in terms of these.

Building a business and investing are basically both risky, but the risk tolerance of the two is different. Not all business people will achieve success as expected, the same is true in the case of investment. We just hope and try our best to get a return from it, it's just that the approach of the two is different.

Many people plan to build a business from the results of their investments, while business people plan to invest from the profits of their business. Business and investment are both profitable, but the risks are still there even though they are different. Lowering expectations for anything uncertain can prevent more disappointment, especially about the future.

Stimulating motivation for yourself in terms of investment and also in better things is indeed a very good job because it can also bring good benefits to yourself. But everyone does not need to be afraid of risk because every job does have risks so we only need to understand it and not be afraid of it until we don't want to try to do any job because of it. Each of us only needs to do better by not fighting the risk because as long as what we do is in accordance with its direction, the results we get will not be much different from what we did before.

Expectations is "The act or state of expecting or looking forward to an event as about to happen." While anticipation is " The eagerness associated with waiting for something to occur. " Or "The act of anticipating, taking up, placing, or considering something beforehand, or before the proper time in natural order."

@OP, I understand what you are trying to explain but you are missing up the two English words which both deals with taking action and expecting results. When you keep a high expectation mindset, you get disappointed if the results doesn't come and when you are also in a state of great anticipation, where's the result didn't impress you, you will be disappointed.  So, one should lower expectation for what they are not sure about.

Whatever the amount you put in your investment, that will be the outcome that you are going to reap. Expectations and anticipations may be processed unconsciously, but in reality we know our expectations and anticipations for most events of our lives.

The problem is, we put too much expectations and anticipations that may lead to fantasies, when we all know we can always limit or balanced whatever expectations or anticipations we want to gain in the future based on what we put in our investment or business.

In other words (Don't be too desperate with highily anxieties of getting rich) because it could optimize your agility unfairly to a bottom of investing without studying the layouts of that source supposingly to be your investment or quick business structure. And then, you might be out of ignorant and hasty befalls victim of great losts or disappointment when your expectations isn't come at when expected but though we still can't get lost the expectations to make profits.

I think raising expectations won't be too much of a problem if all your actions are based on knowledge or the right reasons, and the other I think is more appropriate is increasing self-acceptance, that's more appropriate than lowering anticipation. In the end, the main context of this discussion is about self-acceptance from whatever process we are going through to achieve something we hope for, whether it's in the field of investment or physical business. Basically, self-acceptance is indeed a skill that must be possessed by someone, especially when they are involved in anything that has a risk side, because besides being able to minimize disappointment, this skill will also not make someone lose their common sense so that they can still be in a rational mindset to make the next decision.

This is the first thing every individual who is trying to invest in bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency or a business should think in his mind before proceeding to the next step, invest in bitcoin doesn't mean that you can quickly make it or you will quickly earn a profit, it all depends on a market and when we are talking about the market we are talking about what is unpredicted, we don't know what will happen because in a market the price will rise and also fall and as an investor, you need to put it in mind that there is a time that you will lose but that will not affect you because you have passed the level and you know much about it that the next time is going to favor you.

Any business or any investment needs a person who is patient and believes in what he is doing and what he is going to achieve in the end, many newbies find it difficult to understand the nature of investment because they all see it as something that they will earn a profit immediately after they invest, many people make a profit within a short period but that depends on how the market goes, so we should never expect the result in cryptocurrency every time.

Expectations or hopes must be comparable to the motivation to achieve success because too much hope but not doing anything also does not give anything. In investing we do not prioritize expectations but planning and maybe expectations are only a small part to motivate ourselves. Risk can be anticipated if someone has good knowledge in running an investment and it will not be able to be anticipated if someone does not know the investment properly.

Many people are trapped by the success of others as a trigger in running an investment and they never see the process so that running an investment does not have the right knowledge. In fact, it will cause them problems instead of getting profit.

Expect the unexpected as always on which this would really be the typical thing that you would really be able to encounter on the moment or time you will be dealing up with this volatile space.
You should really be that anticipating for the worst things to happen and you should really be that prepared for that. Always set back up plans whenever your initial analysis had failed out which is really
that very common. Lower up your expectations and never ever make yourself that being too positive because it will really be just that bringing out that kind of disappointment once the market
wil lreally be opposing into your positions on which this is really that commonly happen, and this is something that you should really be that prepared on this case.

It would really be that needing up that kind of adjustments on the time that you would really be dealing up with this volatile space. Make yourself that versatile and would be able to make out adjustments
on which it will really be that normal that you will really be experiencing these kind of potential change of plans due to that sudeen price increase or decrease. No one really knows on what would happen
in the market on which it will really be that a normal approach that you should really be making out those recommended steps and control of emotions on the moment that you do deal up with this space.

Especially when we invest in the cryptocurrency sector, a market full of volatility and scams. One thing I see is that people are too optimistic and somewhat subjective in thinking that investing in bitcoin is risk-free in the long term. It is true that bitcoin is the safest and best investment in the market but it would be wrong to say that it is risk free. Even century-old investments like gold, real estate or stocks have risks, so it would be naive to think that an asset that is only 16 years old is risk-free.

I agree with you, we should be realistic, not delusional and not too subjective when it comes to investment and business.

In fact, I think that high expectations or hopes will be a great motivation to achieve it, likewise in investing we must have a plan and high expectations to motivate ourselves to achieve it and regarding risks or anticipatory actions must indeed be done and that is included in investment science and is not combined with things that spur motivation.
