You Expect What You Believe

In life you will get what you expect and your expectations are created by your beliefs.

If you want more out of life you must expect to receive more. So the questions is, just how do we do that? We must learn to create conditions that allow what we expect to receive too actually come to us.

Many people want or wish things to be better but they don’t really believe those things will be better so they don’t expect anything different to happen. Because they don’t expect anything different they don’t do anything different.

If you want milk or a loaf of bread you simply go to the store and purchase those things. You expect them to be there. However you did set up that expectation the store did. They have created conditions of expectancy for you. Think about it, you don’t doubt or wonder if those items will be in the store, when you want them you just go there. You act as if they are already there. If you get there and they are not there you just go to another store. Now what if the next store you went to did not have the bread and milk would give up on the idea of ever having bread and milk again, certainly not, you would just go to another store. Why would you not quit? Why would you not say something like, this will never work. Nobody is ever going to have bread and milk. The answer is because you really believe they will, and your belief creates expectancy.

If you want to create expectancy in your life, you need to change your beliefs about the things you say you want. Let’s say you want health, wealth and happiness or better relationships. If your behavior remains the same your beliefs are in control.

To not do anything to change is to expect things to remain the same. Once you change your belief about what you want to change your expectancy will follow.
