My son and husband were putting the weights for our entry car for the pinewood derby in cub scouts…
Husband: just because you won last year doesnt mean you will win again this year….
Son: i know that of course…You are not suppose to be negative about it… You dont get what you want, you get what you expect…
I was really shocked as to how my son handled it and i also didnt expect him to say ” you dont get what you want, you get what you expect”
Maybe my son is right because he actually won again this year and we were all happy and surprised except him of course….

Great post. yes we must keep our expectations always of the HIGHEST. Deep in our hearts we must know that ‘winning’ in not the most important thing but DOING OUR BEST with a goal in sight is a great attitude.
