Expectations: That's where the problem is!

It's the starting, you expect, you get disappointed, you become sad, and think what's wrong. That's not how it should work. Satisfaction is the key here, if you don't expect much from someone you will be happy for even the little things they do for you. We always set out standards high, and as someone fails to achieve it, the problem starts.

You need to believe that everything doesn't work the way you want it to be, everyone don't do things the way you like them to be, they have got their own thought process, and obviously they will follow it. It's said that a satisfied person is a happy person, always be satisfied with what you have got, the desire of achieving more should be there, but it doesn't mean that you don't value the things you have got at present.

In every relationship, we expect certain things from the other person, and if they don't do it, we automatically assume that something is wrong with us or them. If they don't do things your way, it doesn't mean that they don't love you or you don't matter for them. Everyone has got their own way of showing affection, love and care, and they might not match with your expectation. You need to think from other's prospective too and you will realize that you have been wrong.

From childhood we have been taught that if you do some thing for someone, they should return the favor in this way and in that way our mind always thinks. So we expect certain things and we get disappointed. Try at least once, don't expect anything from anyone and if they do a tiny thing, you will be happy like anything and that too for you and your relationship either it is friendship or any other relationship. Low expectations is the key for a happy life.

P.S. - What ruins everything is the image or expectation about something that how it is supposed to be!
