Our expectations are the main cause of our stress and hurt us more than anything else. Our biggest mistake is that we always expect from others, for our happiness, struggles, success, respect, peace, desires and problems. In short in every matter we expect that others would make it possible for us, or they would try to find suitable solutions for our problems.

From unsuplash

But when they do not live up to our expectations and hopes, we are heartbroken. But we don't know that we ourselves are responsible for all this. By expecting from others we are setting ourselves for more heartbreak.


If we want to make our life beautiful than we should stop the interference of other people in our life. It's mostly happens to us, when we decide to do something we are worried, what people will think or say? Just leave them because they wouldn't be happy no matter what we do.


Why do we always expect from others?

Unsuplash

Are they more capable than we are? No, not at all, but Almighty has endowed us all with the same abilities, so why we can't do what others can do?


Many people in our lives claim to be our well-wishers, If someone is doing so, but deep inside holding grudges for you, don't worry about it because time will reveal you they are only pretender. Only few people who support us, most of them leave us in our hard time, as if we had no relationship with them. But we cannot repay the kindness of those who support us through thick and thin. So never forget the one who helped you at the time when everyone else was making excuses.

Self-care

From unsuplash

Self-care is necessary to keep you strong and healthy all the time, and it's the foundation for your peaceful life. Believe me no one is around to support you, and to help you to put your dreams into reality.Your pains, hardships, troubles and challenges are for you and no one will come to dig suitable solution for you. So what are you waiting for?


Gird up your lions, and go ahead to drop all the obstacles that comes in your way. Never stop to see what others are doing, they might be wrong so believe on you, and set your own trails behind.

Are you afraid of others? Seek help from Allah

From unsuplash

Believe me they are just around you to diminish your courage, they can't see you making progress, so never let them know about your achievements and keep trying, and instead of relying on others for your happiness and success in your life, rely on your Creator and believe in him because he is the one who is the holder of all our affairs.

Joys and sorrows are part of life

Troubles and worries keep coming in life because its life, we can't just create happiness all the time. Just as thorns cannot be separated from flowers, so joy cannot be separated from sorrows. That's the principle of life.

Therefore, when difficulties or worries come into our lives, we must face them courageously. Because we are not the only ones in this world who are going through grief or hardships.

Choice is yours

In this world there are two choices, the right and wrong. The distinction between them is not hard to make. If we want to choose the right one, nothing can distract us, we just destined to live with it.


On the other hand if we want to stay in wrong, we would find a thousand reasons to prove our decision plausible. But the one thing we should know, if we choose the right one, it will surely lead us to the favorable result, while the wrong one is destined to the destruction. So why not choose the right one to make our end marvelous?

Thanks for reading.

We have expectations from others because our desires are more than our honour and ability.

There is too much expectatipns sometimes especially in relationships. We should reduce the expectations and start to support each other. With help and support we achieve more together, than of we just expect something fron others all the time.

Sometimes I like too much expecting from others and you're right it will break us, now I'm learning to love myself because no one will do it for me, self-care is the best.

We should never be so mean to forget what our well-wishers did for us.
