Dropping All Expectations
- We feel angry, frustrated or sad with our friends, loved ones and family members because they don’t live up to our expectations.
- If we don’t have any expectations in the first place, we would not judge them accordingly, and their actions or non-actions will not cause emotional reactions inside us.
- If we travel somewhere with great expectations, we are bound to be disappointed. If we just go somewhere without any expectations, we may be delighted and would enjoy whatever experience comes forth.
