Quote by Claude M. Bristol

We usually get what we anticipate.

We usually get what we anticipate.

Summary

This quote suggests that our expectations often shape our reality. If we anticipate success or happiness, we are more likely to attract positive outcomes. On the other hand, if we anticipate failure or disappointment, we may unconsciously set ourselves up for a negative outcome. Our thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes play a significant role in manifesting our experiences, and our anticipation can influence the direction and results of our actions. Therefore, it is essential to cultivate positive expectations and maintain an optimistic mindset to increase the likelihood of achieving desired outcomes.
