I find that when I expect something to happen, when I expect someone else to do X, I’m disappointed.
It has taken me a few years to figure that out. And even longer to figure out how to let go of my expectations of someone else and focus on ME.
I need to focus on what I do and to set my expectations of self. I can only control and manage me. I cannot control or manage someone else…what they say, what they do, and how they do it.
My Lesson:
When it really is out of my control, I am learning to suspend my expectations.
What do I expect of myself? How can I rely on myself? What do I want my performance to be?
What do you learn from my thoughts/metaphor/story?
