Personally, I want a nice house, a huge income, a car and a motorcycle, be famous for my works (my articles here and all the books I will soon write), have a nice and loving family who are skilled enough to spar with me, be skilled and healthy enough to spar on even terms with my family, enrich lives and leave a legacy, and more. So far, I have NONE of those (as of Dec. 26, 2016).

Like most people, I dream of becoming “successful.” You probably have similar dreams as I do (except for the whole “martial arts and sparring with the family” part), but like me, you likely don’t have everything you desire as of now. So what should we do to earn what we want? There are many ways to be successful in life, but there is one CRUCIAL starting point for all of them. We need to remember what that is and learn to use it to our advantage.

Sa pagtanda natin, natutunan natin na ang ilang masamang bisyo o bad habits ay nagdadala ng kasamaang palad at kailangan natin silang iwasan kahit anong mangyari. Natutunan natin na ang paninigarilyo ay pwedeng magbigay ng cancer, na ang sedentary lifestyle o pamumuhay na hindi aktibo at pagkain ng hindi masustansyang pagkain ay nagdudulot ng napakaraming sakit, at ang hindi mabuting paghawak ng pera ay nagdudulot ng problema sa pera. Bukod pa doon, may isa pang psychological habit na kasing sama nila. Kung nasanay kang magreklamo sa mga problema at abala sa bawat pagkakataon, baka patungo ka sa pagkabigo. Eto ang tatlong malaking dahilan kung bakit kailangan mong itigil ang bisyo ng pagrereklamo!

As we grew up, we learned that certain bad habits can bring disaster and that we should avoid them at all costs. We learned that smoking can cause cancer, that leading a sedentary lifestyle and eating unhealthy food brings all sorts of diseases, and that bad financial habits lead to money problems.

If you have a habit of complaining about problems and inconveniences every change you get, you could be setting yourself up for failure.

Paano mo nakakamit ang iyong Inaasahan: Kung bakit Self-Fulfilling Prophecy ang Buhay

May popular na 1960’s study kung saan ang isang Harvard professor na nagngangalang Robert Rosenthal ay nagresearch sa epekto ng expektasyon ng mga guro sa mga estudyante. Nagbigay siya ng standard IQ test sa mga batang nasa elementary, random siyang pumili ng mga ordinaryong bata, at sinabi niya sa mga guro nito na ang mga estudyanteng iyon ay magiging napakatalino. Tama sa hinala, matapos ang dalawang taon tumaas ang IQ ng mga napiling estudyante.

Noong nagpatuloy ang pananaliksik ni Rosenthal, natuklasan niya na ang expektasyon ng mga guro ay nakaapekto sa pakikipag-ugnayan nila sa mga random na napiling estudyante. Ang mga inaasahan ng mga guro na magtagumpay ay binigyan ng mas-maraming oras para sumagot sa tanong, mas ispesipikong feedback, at mas maraming papuri: mas-madalas silang humawak, tumango, at ngumiti sa mga batang iyon. Sa madaling salita, ang expectations nila ay nakaaapekto sa kanilang galaw, at ang galaw nila ay nakaaapekto sa kanilang resulta. Inasahan nilang magiging mabuti ang mga bata, kaya sila’y gumalaw sa paraang nakapagpatalino sa mga batang iyon.

Ano ang kinalalaman ng kuwentong ito sa iyo? Simple lang. Ang expektasyon mo sa sarili mo ay makaaapekto sa iyong galawin. Alam mo man o hindi, gagalaw ka sa paraan na magpapakatotoo ng expektasyon mo. Ang buong buhay mo ay sumasalamin sa iyong pag-iisip.

Bakit ito mahalaga? Kung pangarap mong umiwas sa buhay ng pagkatalo at gusto mong umasenso, kailangan mong pag-aralan kung paano kontrolin ang iyong pag-iisip at pagbutihin ang iyong expektasyon.

How you get what you Expect: Why Life is a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy

There’s a famous 1960’s study where a Harvard professor named Robert Rosenthal researched on the effects of teachers’ expectations on students. He gave a standard IQ test to elementary children, selected some ordinary kids at random, and told teachers that those few students will soon become very intelligent. Sure enough, after two years, the selected students DID indeed show an increase in IQ.

As Rosenthal’s research continued, he found that the teachers’ expectations affected their interactions with those randomly selected students. Those kids that the teachers expect to succeed were given “more time to answer questions, more specific feedback, and more approval: They consistently touch, nod and smile at those kids more.” In short, expectations affected their behavior, and their behavior affected their results. They expected the kids to do well, so they behaved in ways that made the kids do better.

So what does this story have to do with you? It’s simple. Your expectations about YOURSELF affects your behavior. Whether you know it or not, you act in ways that will make your expectations reality. Your entire life is a reflection of your thoughts.

Why is this important? If you want to avoid a life of failure and you want to improve the quality of your life, you need to learn how to control your thoughts and improve your expectations.
