What do I mean with this and why is this important for you to know?
Let me explain. And the best way to do so is telling you the story a dear friend of mine Peer Rumland told me many years ago:

On a certain day Mahatma Gandhi and a companion entered the gates of a great city in order to share their teachings with the inhabitants. Almost immediately a follower of the Mahatma, who lived in the city approached and told him, “Master you are wasting your time and energy here. The people here are hard of heart, and resistant to change and the words of truth. They are dumb and ignorant and have no wish to learn anything. Do not waste your gifts upon them.”

Gandhi smiled at the man and replied, “I have no doubt you are right.”

Some minutes later another adherent approached Gandhi saying, “My Lord, you are indeed most welcome by all in this fortunate city. The people await and anticipate the jewels of learning that will fall from your lips. They are hungry to learn and eager to serve you. Their hearts and minds are truly open to you.”

Gandhi smiled and replied, “I have no doubt you are right, too.”

His companion turned to him and said, “Master, how is it possible you can say one thing to one man and something completely different to another? The sun and the moon can never be the same thing, and day cannot be night.”

Gandhi smiled at his friend and replied, “I have no doubt you are right. And you may also consider that both man spoke truly according to their own values. The first expects to see the bad in everything. The second sees only the good. Both men perceive the world as they expect it to be. How can you say either man perceives wrongly since all humankind perceives the world as they choose to experience it? Neither man spoke falsely; just something incomplete.”
(sourced in writing from Nick Owen, the magic of metaphor)

So where would you like to perceive more, because we get what we expect?
Where would you like to expect more?
