I love Eeyore. He was always so accepting of his circumstances whatever they were and he never wanted to impose on anyone. Nothing ever rattled him and even when he was sure the sky was falling it was no big problem for him. After all it was just an old stick house anyhow. But Eeyore was always feeling down and even when his friends tried to cheer him up he stayed down. No matter what they did to make him feel better and to motivate him to do something he just didn’t seem to care.

Eeyore's philosophy of "No Expectations, No Disappointments!" might sound good on the surface, and I admit I lived by his philosophy for years. It seemed like a safe way to think about life and a good way to keep from getting into conflicts with other people.

If I fail it is okay because I didn’t really think I would succeed anyway. When someone or some circumstances let me down I just laugh and say, "Of course not, It's just an old stick house anyhow." Then I would move on to the next thing. I even thought of expectations as dangerous because they often bring disappointments.

However as I looked around me at other more "driven" people who always seem to be leaving me behind I couldn’t help but wonder if there was some kind of secret that I didn’t know about that helped them to succeed, and I wondered if it was possible for me to succeed as well. I watched as others made sales and built careers doing the things I imagined myself doing. It is hard not to be envious of successful people who seem to be able to make money out of thin air. I decided to start asking them what it was that made seemingly everything work for them. The answers surprised me.

It is all about expectations! You get exactly what you expect to get. I ha
