Do i Need to Lower my expectations?
Without looking at the next line, ask yourself one question: What frustrates / disappoint you the most?
So.. have you finalised your answer?
Want to hear mine?
My Ans: People
If u dont already realise, people aways disappoints/ frustrates.
Cant u recall a single moment whereby you get pissed off with someone? Or that his/her actions left you absolutely disillusioned?
Surely, someone must have disapointed you at some point of your life. Let it be your previous nasty bf/gf, or him/her failing to fufil a promise.
The list of examples are infinite.
I'm not self-aggrandizing, but its no secret to my closest friends that i have very high expectations in myself, in whatever i do. It makes me uncomfortable when people fail to conform to the same level of expectation.
After a long chat with my good friend, jeff, we both agreed that i probably need to see people in a different light. I cant possibly expect the same of everyone. To save me the frustration and disappointment, Its time for me to lower my expectations...
No expectation = No disappointment/ frustration = I dont even need to write this blog!

Hey dude,
I share the same sentiments with you, getting easily irritated when people can't meet my expectation. But somehow, somewhere, sometime, I did think back and really regret about it because all I needed to do was to relax and accept what's on. Everyone will be happy again.
