Great Expectations

How Many of our disappointments in life are brought about by our own unreasonable expectations? This evening we just have a little chat discussing how we can avoid the pitfalls of anger and disappointment and depression, in our life by tempering our expectations of what lies ahead.

Right there with you Dewayne. At 61 I don't have time for "friends" that are not quality individuals and those that carry themselves with integrity. But over the years I have learned to cut people slack (not excuse bad behavior), and take them as they are. "Expectations" can be a mental trap you can never escape from and that leads to disappointment, as you've said.

[@arcaneknight9799]

Thank you. You're right. I'm 26 and lonely. I have a good salary, lift weights, dress pretty well. I expected that I was finally ready to date based on the person I thought I had become. I met this girl at the gym, and built some rapport. We had so many things in common. I finally asked for her number and took her on smoothie date. It was going so well at first that I asked if she wanted to hike the next day. She said what a nice time she had and was looking forward to the next date. My expectations were so high. My bliss was so high. I thought it was my turn. Then after the hike, she said that she didn't want to lead me on into thinking we could hang out a lot because she was going to probably leave the area for graduate school and not go to graduate school in the area. I know I must have gone overboard and smothered her due to inexperience because my expectations were so high. I felt dead emptiness and reacted poorly to seeing her at the gym (just ignored her and tried to pretend she wasn't there). I don't think that was kind of me. Sadly, I know that explaining myself to her wouldn't go anywhere, but I could at least be courteous next time. Long story, but I need to drop my expectations just as you're saying.

[@più_lento_28_13]

better be alone and at peace with your own mind, free of expectations and thinking about what others might think of you (thd girl), than being a prisoner of those thoughts. And don’t forget, the things that are destined for you will always turn up. Always.

My dad always said that some people believe life is a playground, when in reality it is a battleground. For those playground people, they experience much more disappointment and pain because they have an inaccurate view of things. Going into life knowing it is a battleground makes it all so much easier. Great stuff.

[@FumblsTheSniper]

I’ve had to actually live life off of scraped knuckles and bared teeth. You’re so dead wrong about life that I’m sad for you. Things can get so dark so quickly that living life with that expectation leaves no light. You’re stronger than that, don’t let the candle burn out.

[@davidklutcharch9915]

Eh, wrong sentiment, the cowboy dad is right but you chose the wrong words

[@123Mathzak]

Life is both a playground and a battleground. It both allows us to relax and enjoy it at times, and at other times it also holds us unavoidably and undeniably accountable by the consequences of our actions. Life is too short to either only play or only battle; We must learn how to handle a balance of play and battle within our own lives, so that both sides are as enjoyable and as fulfilling as possible.

[@sakhti9962]

Caveat: I haven't watched the full video yet, so I might miss some crucial information. My first response: a playground doesn't mean you can't get hurt. There's risks and difficulties, physically, socially and emotionally. Just because you will encounter situations and people you struggle with doesn't make it a battleground. Life can be difficult as is. For me the battleground metaphor adds this dimension of being actively targetted. I don't see how that's constructive or helpful in any way. Maybe a middleground between playground and battlefield can be an obstacle course. It has the element of adversity. Added benefit (for me at least): the immediate awareness there might be obstacles I can't do alone, or on the first try.

I'm just a 23 yo girl but when you talked about approaching life like its a hallmark movie it hited me so hard because i've been living in that expectation for more than 7 years of my life, expecting it to be such a beautiful and soft future, and all i gained from that was disappointment. And its so hard to let it go of that view because i feel like if i leave those expectations, my dreams will not come true... and to accept life as it is right now is such a hard thing to do, because its not good. Living has been a torment. So i get divided by these thoughts :(

[@josiahthayer2205]

Accepting things as they truly are does not mean that you have to give up on your dreams. I think reducing ones expectations actually softens the blow of reality. I've always told myself, hope for the best and prepare for the worst. It's not irrational or wrong to consider what possibilities the future might hold, but you can't live in the future and the present at the same time. It takes many, many years, perhaps even a lifetime, to accomplish the things you aspire to. There will be years of torment, and there will be years of rejoicing. Life is not supposed to "be" any particular way. We have to play the cards we are dealt, and hope for the best. 23 is very young, you have so much time to figure things out. I hope you are able to find some peace soon.

[@takeuchi5760]

I think he doesn't mean to expect to be disappointed or expect that dreams won't come true, he just means don't presume enough to think you know how it will turn out, as that only causes misery and confusion. Be adventurous and not naively (even if sub consciously) expect that life will play out like you think it will. It's difficult to switch things like that, still, nothing changes until we try to change it. Have unwavering belief in yourself without a hint of entitlement, very difficult balance to strike but a necessary one.

Thank you once again my good sir, for your sophisticated "old school" teachings. I developed low expectations of others but high expectations of myself through life experience. I don't get let down that way for better or worse. I'm responsible for my hapiness, no one else. I've become very independant as a result of having "great expectation" of others in the past. I know I won't let myself down. I live life on an even keel. I don't get too high or too low. Sounds boring and perhaps is, but I feel better overall as opposed to riding the extreme rollorcoaster of emotions.

No shrimp! All the crawfish were small enough to bait a 2/0 hook and were over cooked! I was furious. I paid my hard earned money and had high expectations that the crawfish were gonna be good. What a disappointment. I could only rationalize that if I were selling crawfish that I’d make sure that my product was good and order was complete and I expected the same.

[@8055jameelkareem]

I agree that expectation management can reduce disappointment and take off the pressure, but, on the flipside, you can also set high expectations for yourself and it will give you energy and motivation on a daily basis. The danger is if you don't reach the expectations. But then again, you may reach higher if you expect higher even if you don't achieve 100%. This is only for expectations of yourself, not others. Expecting little from others is probably a good bet.

i'm on my second college semester and I've never felt so lost, exactly what you said it's hard to not feel hopeless and not have any expectations. When I know I'm spending all this money and all this time for a degree that I may or may not even use for a job that I am not guaranteed to get in a world that I am not guaranteed to live in. I really needed to hear this and I'm sure a lot of other people did. Please never stop making these videos you're like a father I never had and I need this wisdom more than you know.

One thing my granddaddy always said was it's good to dream, but you have to follow through. You also have to be adaptable to life's bumps. He also said God gives you the ingredients, but it's up to you to make the cake.

I know right . Sometimes having standards and expectations is necessary . If a person is so outside of what you can accept, move on.

[@ZdenzSv]

@@dravenn2632Yes, but i do agree with him. Sometimes people just expect too much. Many want to have a perfect person. You need to have standards but sometimes those standarts are unrealistic.
