Excitement and expectation present before an ensuing event plays a major role in getting the most enjoyment and pleasure out of it. The absence of them felt at the end of that event clearly indicates that to us, even though we get the full satisfaction then!

Avoid temptation, to become content!
When your parent or friend asks you, 'Do you want to taste this?' or 'Taste it,' by giving it to you, what do you get? A temptation to experience it yourself rises in you. Whatever you desire, it makes an expectation in you to get it and experience. If you get, it gives you some satisfaction. Later, when you begin to get happiness out of it by using it again, you have now started your other fresh attempts to get a full satisfaction out of it (but when you don't get it, it produces frustration in it and then worrying about it). Important thing here is that you must become fully content with having once the full happiness and satisfaction out of it. On the other hand, in case if you don't become content with it, in spite of having got full happiness, drop it and desire for more of that similar happiness in another similar thing, then you have started to become addicted to more and more expectations. So, train yourself to decide and say a firm 'no' to offers made by others to taste or to do and/or experience. Then this firmness of you will limit your desires, lessen expectations, protect you from frustrations and make you happy and be content with what you have got now as new.

Expect with a happy mood, and enjoy!
In any function, event or activity, there will be enthusiasm and satisfaction only when a pleasant expectation of it is induced in all its participants - that too well before the start of the function. In addition to that, that function should be carried out by all smoothly with involvement, with ease, with freed mind, with a happy mood, and without any inhibition too. Then the satisfaction will be felt by all the participants even before the ending of the function, and also after the function is over, long lasting - without any feeling of lost enjoyment!

Expect anything by memory/senses!
Memory of yesterday's satisfaction induces an expectation in us today too, for getting that again. Example for this is that we expect, by reflex, yesterday's tasty food today too to be served. But there is also an another type of expectation which we get only when we feel it through our senses combined with memory. Here, information from our memory is retrieved on receiving a similar stimulus from the environment as that of a previous one. This one evokes in us an expectation of arrival of something that either satisfied or terrified us before with its content, in a similar previous conditions of the environment. Examples for this are a pet fish in an aquarium tank swimming up to the water surface on mere seeing the fingers of its master, expecting a feed! And humans expecting Tsunami that occurred on a similar date in a previous year! Think also here about the special perception power of animals in identifying the oncoming Tsunami early!

Have mood to enjoy!
If we have a good outlook and expectation, we get full mood for enjoyment. Without this mood if you begin to enjoy a moment you shall get only half of it. So, create this mood both in the people around you and within you to get the best and the most of enjoyment; or permit and let others create the mood for you in you!

Reject the response to be peaceful!
Only the unpleasant response from our environment to our expectations produce a sorrowful state in us. So, accept that response or forget about the harm done by rejecting that response itself. And do not expect any more that you wished and drop it from your mind; then move on to some other better, possible and prospective expectation - to be peaceful and have a refreshed mind always.

Plan, but do not expect!
Planning with too much imagination and expectation about its result is to be avoided. The plan itself may change later making all of such imagination and expectation futile. So, plan and carry out step by step, and enjoy the outcome stage by stage to get the full satisfaction and happiness out of it - at the end!

Be informed and prevent mind damage!
Expected or unexpected unpleasant events may damage mind of a person, if they repeat again and again. To control the damage to the mind, the person has to be informed about and 'be prepared' for any such events in life, and he/she must have also a philosophical attitude towards them, if they happen.
