Lower Your Expections But Raise Your Standards!

What do I mean by this?? Example just because you treat someone with respect. Don't expect them to respect you!



Why not you say? Because you don't know what someone else is thinking or going through. They may have different values than you, they may not be your people to be around but ultimately you cannot control how someone responds to you!



With standards - this can be how you present yourself! Such as how much effort you put into your work, yourself, your relationships.


Your Standards can be high because of how you present yourself, you put a lot of effort into presentation, being healthy, successful.



Expectations get all F*cked up and this is where we set ourselves up for failure.


We expect people to act a certain way, Or for example, have Expectations of what a women's and a man's world looks like.


When we do this, we are building these expectations in our own minds, where you're left feeling let down or unappreciated. This is because you have your own expectations of someone based on YOUR opinion. Not based on who they are!



People are always showing you who they are  yet we brush over it because we want to see more of the good in someone. In a lot of cases they just aren't the person you are looking for, or the situation may not work out exactly as planned. But this doesn't necessarily mean it's a failure we just have to look at it differently. 🤔



By lowering the expectations but keeping your standards high. You are ensuring that you are doing what you need to be doing and controlling what you can control.


But not left feeling let down based on what you THINK someone else has to do, or has to be like.



Work on your own self love and care, and the rest will come!
