Expectations...
Tuesday, September 25, 2007
We all put expectations on ourselves. But when are these expectations to high? I often see what others put themselves through based upon what they expect from themselves. It's funny that I can see in others what I cannot see in myself.
I have always expected more from myself than I would ever expect from another person. I understand much of what I feel is almost impossible to do, and yet I do not change my expectations.
So I ask you this, where do we draw the line? When should a person realize that some expectations are more harmful than good? And, how does one change something so ingrained in who they are that changing would seem to be just as unlikely as the lowering of said expectations.
I write this because I find that I expect so much in so many areas that they contradict each other. And still, I try.
