Rule #1: Expect less
We often tell ourselves that we shouldn't expect anything. But who are we kidding?
Life is like Science. We do experiments to have an outcome in order to state a conclusion.
In everything we do, we do it because we are expecting for a result to happen.
Stop lying to your own selves. Accept the fact that we have expectations. May it be from outselves or from other people.
We are even expecting for the future to happen!
This rule tells us that it is fine to expect but never set your expectations too high. Keep in mind that expectations only have two possible outcomes, happiness and disappointments.
Lucky for you if what you expected happened because the outcome will lead you to happiness.
But often times, expectations will lead to disappointments. And disappointments will lead to heartaches.
Expect is only 6 letters but the pain it can cause you can be 6× the agony of waiting for it to happen. And the pain can last for either 6 days, 6 weeks, 6 months or 6 years.
Let life surprise you. Sometimes, the best things in life happen when you least expect it.
