Making the first Move

Chess is Big at UMBC
Written By Eugene Morgan

Expectation is not waiting for something to happen. Expectation is an attitude to do something to expect something to happen.  It’s something that we do that influence something external that might happen.

We can’t rely on external events alone for something to happen for us.  We must play our part in the process so that others have the opportune time to respond.  We get rewarded when a certain action takes place and we get a response from others.

It doesn’t matter whether it’s a positive or negative response, as long as we get some feedback from our actions.  We can always readjust our actions if we want a positive response.  The point is we’re getting feedback to help on readjusting our behavior.  We got to rely on ourselves to make the moves.
