Raise your expectations, but lower your anticipations

[CageMabok]

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.

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.

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.

On the moment that you do step your foot into  this market then it would really be just that right that you should really know on how things do works and never make those kind of expectations or antipations.
Actually both things are really just that the same on which there would really be those kind of thinking or mindset that you are expecting something positive. Dealing up with this volatile space will really be
definitely be having that kind of inevitable experience about disappointment and anger specially on the time or moment that your analysis didnt able to hit up.

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.

On the time that you've been expecting something positive but the outcome or result turns out to be that opposite, then as human beings then those kind of reactions will really be common.

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.

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.

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.

Expectation is about action, while anticipation is about results. Increasing our expectations for something fuels our motivation to act, but at the same time, lowering our anticipations helps reduce the sense of disappointment.

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.

I dont see anything wrong in expectations and anticipations. The idea is that always keep doing what you are doing. As long as there is effort being put in then you are bound to expect results and to anticipate it is a good thing. That shows that one has a positive mindset. In the end it's either we win or we fail but we will learn what we might have done wrong if we fail.

You make it sound like there is shame in disappointment. While in my own opinion i know there is no shame in being disappointment. Since it's human we will expect the results to come from we should know that there is limitation to humans and one can be disappointed but thats not the end of everything.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Investing can be seen as having a higher chance of success compared to starting a business, because you're putting your money into companies with stronger competitive advantages. However, whether you're investing or starting a business, you need to accept that you might lose that money the moment you put it in. Put in 100% effort, but don’t get too caught up in fantasies. The outcome will be a natural result of your hard work.

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.
