Expectation of Greatness


Expectation of Greatness
“It is the nature of man to rise to greatness if greatness is
expected of him.”
John Steinbeck, Author

As I see it . . . . . . .

Expectation of greatness

A person seems to live up to the expectations that they have for themselves.

The only limitation a person has is in their thinking . . . .

A young boy grows up in a poor intercity neighborhood in Trenton NJ. His father worked in a factory, and like most mothers in at that time she was home to raise the 3 children.

Fred lived in a poor working class neighborhood where the expectations for their kids were to work at a factory or get a job with the state. With that expectation engrained in the kids in most cases that exactly what happen with the kids. 

From as far back as I can remember his dream and expectation was he would graduate from the US Naval Academy.

After Fred graduated from the Naval Academy he when on to have a very successful career as a Naval Officer.

Expectation of greatness . . . . you will become what your inspired to become. What you become will be as big as the greatness you expect of yourself.
