Expectations are the Best Killers

I was just going through some random quotes, one of it goes as:

"Feelings for someone is not wrong, but expecting the same is deadly"

And it stroked a few lines in my mind

Never assume and expect, be practical and ready to face the circumstances

It not only goes for your feelings and emotions but also for any work you do. If you are climbing the tree and expecting that you can never fall is not correct. You might fall anytime and hurt yourself but you need to try again and aim higher. Not only this, you need to keep yourself more focused and directed than before. A human being tends to make mistakes. And those mistakes certainly kill you, if not physically, mentally. So better be wise enough to hope that
you won't make a mistake, keep yourself alert and do your best.

It might happen sometimes that even after your dedication and hard work, it won't work and the result will not be as expected, but never lose the hope. Keep trying and be prepared to work harder the next time until and unless you don't achieve it.

People generally confuse between hopes and expectations. Hope creates a positive energy within you and rather than being selfish or self centred, you work in the direction where you can keep everyone happy around. But expectations generates a self obsession and you just consider yourself as the only factor for achieving success.

Same goes for your feelings as well. You might start liking someone or even fall in love with, but expecting the same from that person can be dangerous. You can surely hope for it, because then you understand what can be possible consequences but expectations never let you think about the other side of the coin.

So be smart and wise enough to accomplish your tasks and hope to get the best learning and result out of it.

Keep smiling and believe in yourself 😊
