Expectation kills..

Hey gorgeous! Allow me to reveal a secret here - it's good to stop expecting and it's for the best when you learn that early. Expecting and accepting are complementary. The moment we stop expecting is the moment we start accepting. It's when we begin to see reality clearly and begin to draw the pattern of the strings which by then had been invisible to us i.e. we begin to realize our faults and flaws. And that's absolutely alright. There is nothing wrong in falling because unless you fall, you don't really get the opportunity to rise. but that does not mean that you quit. Quitting is never an option, no matter how low you feel. Yes, I've been a failure too. and not just once. I had dreamed of becoming a doctor and had worked hard for it but my dream shattered way too early when no school would let me choose science as my subject for my higher studies. I accepted and compromised with the situation. And went with the flow. i chose Commerce as my subjects and thought of opting for Economics for my graduation. But again, the mighty Fate came in between. In spite of scoring a 96 in both Mathematics and Economics, I couldn't see my name in any list of the colleges I had planned to do my graduation from. May be I just had the habit of dreaming big, I thought and moved on. from no where, without any plans, I landed in the field of Literature. That was perhaps the only moment in my life when I had no plans, no thoughts, no hopes, and well, no expectations. I just accepted the turn of events and went with the flow. And today when I look back, I look back not in anger but with intense gratitude. My subject changed my life, changed me as a person, and see here I'm sharing my experience on this platform with you. Stop expecting but don't be a pessimist. Never. Being stoic is fine. Being optimist is the best. Regards, Medha.

Yes buddy, Id experience this thing as well So frustating! After how many days of studying then after all the result would be ..

I had this problem with my organic chemistry. It blocked me many numbers of times.

@Teekaaa Hey, yes - expectations ruin everything. I try to not expect, but somehow end up doing it rather involuntarily, like a habit.

I don't expect anything from anyone. I believe in work whatever the result may be.

Expectattion is natural in us. However, one must give some allowance or flexibility for some unexpected events or else you'll get frustrated in the end.

A lot many times my expectations failed, but still we should never stop expectations. Its human nature.

@Teekaaa Yes it is really a thrilling moment .. One could not have patience .. But one should have the ability to face positive or negative any way good luck and believe that you will score much

Expectations are always painful, when they fail, whether its exams, or friendship or relationships. Most people who are at peace with themselves expect least in all spheres of life.

There's nothing wrong with expectation but such expectation must always be realistic and must also reserve some room for failure.
