Expectations. Most of us hold expectations for ourselves and for others. Having expectations for yourself helps to drive you forward into being the best version of yourself. There is a problem with holding expectations for others: it’s not our job! When we place expectations on others, we are setting ourselves up for disappointment. When we place expectations on others, we fail to celebrate their uniqueness. When we place expectations on others, we miss the opportunity to let them grow. It’s hard to do, but it’s important that we step back and let people be who they are. Drop the expectations of others and accept them for who they are. From where I sit, I remove my expectations and celebrate uniqueness in everyone.
