Day 312 of wisdom

“Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.”

Zig Ziglar

As John Lennon said, “Life is what happens to You while you are busy making other plans.” Life does not always give you what you want, sometimes life surprise you with unexpected events and happenings. As much as we may not always get what we plan for, nevertheless we must always expect the best. In life it you expect nothing, you will most likely get nothing, though life may seem easier for you, you will not enjoy it to its maximum height. It is better to expect much and get little than to expect little and get nothing or even expect nothing at all.

As we endeavour to raise our expectations and keep them high, we must be ready to accept whatever comes our way, we must be prepared for the disappointment that comes with expectations. You will be happier if you don't allow the disappointment of high expectations get to you, life will be a lot more easier for you. You must have inbuilt shock absorbers, that will keep you in shape when life presents you the exact opposite of what you expect. Find a reason to move on irrespective of what comes your way.

Whatever life gives you is an opportunity to grow, to learn, and to develop yourself to becoming a better person. As a popular saying goes, "When life give you lemons, make lemonades out of it." Every bad situation has a lesson in it for us, it is up to us to find out the lessons that are in every situation for us. We must not despise any situation, we must see them as phases that must be passed through to get to our desired destination because that is what they are truly for.

Steve Jobs once said, "You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life." The future is clearly unseen and unknown in the present but, when we get to that future and we retrospect, we will discover why our journey has been the way it has. So, never lose hope, “Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.”
