Expecting The Best Means That You Put Your Whole Heart (i.e. The Central Essence Of Your Personality) Into What You Want To Accomplish. People Are Defeated In Life Not Because Of Lack Of Ability, But For Lack Of Wholeheartedness. They Do Not Wholeheartedly Expect To Succeed. Their Heart Isn't In It, Which Is To Say, They Themselves Are Not Fully Given.

Stand Up To An Obstacle. Just Stand Up To It, That's All, And Don't Give Way Under It, And It Will Finally Break. You Will Break It. Something Has To Break, And It Won't Be You, It Will Be The Obstacle.
