Managing expectations.
Manage your expectations and you'll manage your disappointments. - Todd Lohenry
I tend to expect too much. I tend to expect people will understand my situation, to be patient with me, to go along. But sometimes, they have their own agenda too. They have their own goals, goals that most of the time I need to understand will not always align to my presence, meaning that if I don't keep up my pace, I'll be left out. I guess this is what adulting feels like.
" u can't forever stay there right? "
" whats ur goal ? "
" u need to do something to convince me. u gotta move up "
" u need to increase ur pace, or else I dont know what u'll be in the future "
Doubts, failed expectations and disappointments.
Some of u may think that maybe I should change my attitude, change the way I see, to see positivity in all things. I actually do see the good things, the good intentions behind the phrases mentioned above. But sometimes, do people think about how I feel when I expect something from them and ... i didn't get it? I guess they expect from me too, and I guess I need to manage my expectations as well. But, shouldn't they do the same thing too?
