Expectation is about action, while anticipation is about results. Increasing our expectations for something fuels our motivation to act, but at the same time, lowering our anticipations helps reduce the sense of disappointment.
Investing can be seen as having a higher chance of success compared to starting a business, because you're putting your money into companies with stronger competitive advantages. However, whether you're investing or starting a business, you need to accept that you might lose that money the moment you put it in. Put in 100% effort, but don’t get too caught up in fantasies. The outcome will be a natural result of your hard work.
Basically everything that is done has a level of risk of failure or success and one must be able to assess both before deciding to run. Investment and business involve money so it is impossible not to get risks, but smart people will try to minimize it, not be afraid to take the opportunity to grow. Expectations must be comparable to knowledge in running a business or investment because if not, we only dream of achieving success without being driven by several things as supporters.

Effort never betrays the results, but before trying to build everything, people must first understand the pattern that must be run. If it is related to investment, then study it properly or even vice versa business. When everything is done correctly, then there is great hope that we will get the success we want.
