Why is it that some of life’s biggest letdowns seem to immediately follow its highs?
One of my college professor’s would be gratified to know that I actually learned something from his class on semantics.
Keep your motivations high and expectations low to avoid letdowns.
Just last week I let my expectations get the better of me again so it is probably a human condition to misplace hope for expectations.
Hope is unbridled optimism that often trips us up.
So, to avoid the lows, we also have to avoid the highs.
Feel the joy for sure but don’t let hopes and expectations run away with reality.
