Meeting Expectations
How to manage expectations can be quite a daunting thought. I wonder how often we think about meeting expectations and the impact of this? To my understanding, having a form of expectation is a good thing, as we never go into any task, activity, or experience without some sort of pre-existing thought. Expectations are positive and a good way to measure our objectives and performance but this also needs to be balanced and analysed with an open-minded perspective. The downfall is completely unattractive, as the fear to meet an expectation - not just from yourself but from other people also can be quite frightening. I believe reminding ourselves of our intention and purpose should be a constant reflection to avoid misunderstandings and disappointment when our expectations aren't being completely fulfilled.
