Expectations


  1. In this post, let's focus on the word expectation. 
  2. It's always good, people once said, to have expectation in life, the life we want to lead, the kind of relationship and to what extend we want it to be, the quality of our life etc ... ...
  3. Always we felt that, expectation is something keep us going, picking up the challenges in life, handling it and overcome it, so that we may grow, gaining knowledge and experience and at the same time, leading the kind of life we wanted, according to our expectation.
  4. Another scenario comes into play where having expectation can be too heavy for us. Having high expectations at times will be dragging us, causing depression, stress and even lead to some unwanted incidents. We may not realized that our expectation is too high for ourselves, by comparing with our peers and maybe our previous self, we may realized that our expectations could be too high to be achieved at all.
  5. So expectations can be a double edge sword. How it going to affect us is very much depended on how we are using it. Having expectation is good as it will drive us to go forward, but having too much expectations will be killing us without us realizing it. 
  6. A simple theory and yet when we are stuck in such a conundrum, we can just never figure it through.
  7. The trigger point for my posting and this topic is related to my studies. Out of expectations, i am the highest scorer among all the 24 or so students. Never been it run through my mind that i can be the top scorer for Managing Organization. 
  8. On the other hand, i am not the top scorer for my another class called Corporate Finance. What a shame that as i was expecting myself to be scoring for that subject.
  9. Nevertheless, both paper left last part which is the final examination to be completed. I need to gather myself and make sure that i will ace these exams.
  10. OK, let's get prepared. For the exams and the holidays after this.
