The expectation is a whore




When you expect something, you are on needles. This should be this day, this week, this year, and still is not there. You send to apply for a job and nobody responds to you? You called this sweet girl and she did not answer at your call? The friend forgot about you even you invited him to party?

The expectation is a whore. If you expect something great, it might disappoint you when you get an average result. For sure you might remember your facial expression when someone bought a gift for your birthday. You wanted expensive perfume, and a friend bought you spray. Now she expects gratitude, and you will say: - Thanks, it is nice. Indeed, all you wish is to strangle her because you expected more from your best friend.

Don't be naive in your judgment. If you think that giving much means getting much, this math formula doesn't work in that way. The classic story is hidden in love relations. 

All the girls were running for the same guy in class. Lew was a macho dude, sexy, smart and with a great sense of humor. Girls wore short skirts just to get noticed. Pamela solved his home works, and Celia defended him when the teacher accuses him of a fight in the classroom. In the end, Lew chose Caroline. She was not on his back as other girls. She was realistic, objective, even rude. They even did not talk sometimes, because Caroline rejected to support him in a runaway from class. Lew saw the challenge and wanted to date with her.

I don't say that you should never expect anything from anyone. It is natural that we expect big things from beloved people, friends, and family. They might surprise us, but also disappointment is possible. 



When you don't expect, you are more objective.

When you don't expect, you can't be disappointed.

When you don't expect, you don't feel anger.


The situation, when you don't expect, makes you feel freer and with more logical sense. Also, it will let you insight into pleasant surprises. You are not influenced by fear, how you will survive if you don't get a job, if you don't get a love for return or if you are not invited to a party. Your mind is free from delusions. 

You are not pimp to this whore, because you don't expect any more.

How authors' profile should look like?

Inspired by Instagram, I am writing this post. Many authors want to get followers there using the option follow to follow. How much is this kind of following honest and why does it look like a manipulation? Imagine you are going shopping. The vendor says: "If you buy this, I will buy something from you." This is not how things work, isn't it? The same is with social engagement. If you want to follow someone, you will do because this profile is something that attracted your attention. Some authors need to be more informed about what the author's profile should be like. A basic belief about the author's profile: Book links. Book covers. Book presentations. No profile photos, no selfies, or memes. If you have a photo, let it be professional. Now, I found some links that want to earn by photographing authors.  Authors are people. It means we have our emotions, reactions, and imagination. The primary task of every author is to represent himself to readers. Here is what

My horror novel: The curse of Dark sunrise

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BY34C83J?ref_=pe_3052080_276849420 Writing in various genres is always challenging.  This is my journey in horror genre. My novel is coming soon. The blurb: Dark sunrise is a religious cult. They are gathering members. Their supporters are people from destroyed families or those who suffer from depression.  Ana is recruited in the community when she came on the party in Croatia.   She accept to involve with a leader Victor, but he has other plans. Kidnapping a Serbian politician was a wrong move. When the new woman in the community appears, rivalry starts. Check out my book in Amazon.

When you are an indie author, you will need editing. That means you will hire an editor who should be professional, American or British. Sending your book to editing doesn't mean your job is over.

It happens even to successful writers.  What is important is to spend your money for editing in smart way. If you pay, you need to get edited book in return.
