My Family Expects a Lot From Me. It's Pushing Me.

Try your best and God will reward you hard work. If I were you, I could work extra hard on my studies because I think that is what matters to you and them most.

you just try to do your best.do not think that you will fail.thinking positive will always make you be better.you have to get used to people asking a lot from you. this is how the things work in life.when you are good they ask a lot,when you are the best they want even more. i know how you feel because i 've always had good results in school and in my work and each time i did'n reached my best people were acting like i dissapointed them. i faced for many years the fear of failing but i learned to defeat it. you can do it.

Your family supported you financially for your studies. This days, it is hard to make a child go to school because tuition fees are expensive. They want you to be successful. They gave everything to you. Let your family be your guide all through the years in your study and you will never fail. Have faith.

Hi there Rusale, Good luck in your computer Science studies. Do you like programming? If Yes, then enjoy what you are doing. But if you don't like it, try jumping into another study that you like before it is too late. The Challenges will always be manageable, when you know where you are heading, and what you want to achieve. Good luck.

Expectation from family and siblings is a fact of life that we just have to live with. Do the best you can. Know what you are capable of. If you think you can do 100%, don't settle on 60%. Be realistic but be confident as well. Always work hard and smart. You must make sure that at the end of the day, you are able to tell everybody in the eyes that "I have done my best". Whether your best is good enough is not something you can control but you must have known what it is if you have set your mind into doing it well. Don't worry about anything else. Just concentrate on doing it well.

Do not fill discourage continue to aim high not to give up

Try to convert that pressure into a good thing...let it inspire you to do better and don't let it pull you down.

I know how hard it is to have to live up to the expectations of your family. For me, I feel like a disappointment and liability to my family too. I know I should not feel this way but I just feel like I am not doing anyone any favor. I seem to have so many stumbling blocks in life and I wish I will have my break very soon We can always pray and lift everything up to the Lord.

Do your utmost and you can succeed. Your situation is much like us who are going to go to further study since the competition for a good job is so keen, but it is really a hard way to go. Our senior schoolmates encourage us to stick to it no matter what current condition we are in and ther will be sunshine after the rain as long as we persist. So let us fight side by side!:

Don't take it the hard way. Instead of letting the situation pressure you, let yourself be inspire by it. I know its a lot of pressure, but by this you will be able to strive harder.

You should try hard and live up to the expectations of your relatives,parents :) And be optimistic ALWAYS

I think you should not have pressure! I study law!It is a very difficult course, and I start feeling great difficulties. But you have to think only of you and your future!I think the most important thing in life is to be well with us, or do the best for us and what we like! Everything else is secondary ... Try to give the best to you always! You will see that everything will be fine! It is my sincere wish!

Many parents have high expectations of their children; and I think it is very often because they want their children to do well in life. Study is important, because in later years, it helps a person get a good job, which is a good foundation for success; and success can contribute to happiness; peace in life; a sense of status. In later years, a person can feel deep pain if they do not fulfill their potential in life; and it may be that parents know this, and want to protect their children from this pain. Also, a good job brings a person independence, freedom; power to build their own life; career; family; home and so on. So...hard study at school is only temporary. And a good building block for the future. I would say to anyone suffering from their studies...just think...in time, it will be worth it...and...it is not for long. Try and relax. Enjoy it. Easier said than done of course...but...just do your best.

Well, they love you most, and also give most expectation on you, therefore, give most pressure on you. I know, to live under the pressure is not easy, especially for a young person still in college. I think first, you should try to understand them. All the pressure from your family members are coming from their love on you. Try to talk with them, let them understand what is in your mind. Tell them you don't like live in pressure. Of course, you should try to make progress in your studying. Though you may feel it is hard to reach what your family member expected on you, but you should try your best and try to succeed in studying and in your future career, in this way, your family will feel happy. And you won't let them down.

It is really a dificult situation the one you are going into, and a lot of pressure of course, and I am not really sure if what I will say will really help you, but I am going to share my own personal experience with you, although is a bit diferent, there is something about family pressure that you may understand. I am the fifth of five brothers, all of them excelent accountants and economists, and very successful, and of course, my parents wanted me to lead my life in that direction too. But, what really intersted me was the arts, and it made my teenage years kind of hard, because I am really bad in maths, I even had my rebel period, that has no point to discuss here. I tryed to work as an accountant, but failed in college, until one day, I went to a jewelry workshop to work, in an ocasional summer job, and I stayed, while in there, I went to the arts academy and graduated. Now, I am fulfilled and happy, and my family is too. What I try to say is that you are not responsible for no one else, you don´t carry anybodys life on your shoulders, what you need to do is think in what you want in life, and what will make you happy. Is not about of being selfish or anything, of course, you support your family, but think that everyone is responsible for the decision he/she makes in life, and, you are responsible for those you take, and no one else has to put any presure in this issue. My best wishes for you.

Hi there rusale!! Well it is normal for your parents to say that.I experience that too during my college days.But when I finally graduated they never said a thing anymore.They can't predict the future or create a life for you.No matter what they say they can never prevent what will happen in the future.If its a good or a bad future for you only God knows.Just try to bear with your parents a little longer and do your responsibility as their child.

Yes, I do feel the same way too. But unlike you, I was not pushed by my siblings and parents. I am just too concerned about trying to push my limits further to be able to achieve what my other siblings achieved. Having them as models and examples make me think that I need to push myself harder to be at par with them or even better than them. Being the youngest makes me wonder if I can do what they have achieved ahead of me. Well, that's the case for me though. But don't take the pressure seriously. It will only stress you out and will be the cause for you not to perform well. Just remember to go out there and do your best always. Just my two cents in here!

Hey rusale, make you maximum effort to do the best. You will surely succeed. Don't make your parents to feel bad on you. If they expect more on you then why don't you expect the best. Go for it All the best
