Yeah, I think many just never come to naught. Forget about other people's expectations. What is funny about people is that they will judge you, **** with you, then a moment later go back to thinking about number one. So screw them!

Expectations may be good or bad- but ambitions rarely go without costing somebody something. The trick is to have expectations but to avoid trying to force them to produce fruit. Some expectations are incorret and would not happen unless artificially forced with some unreasonable effort. Ambition is usually that inreasonable amount of force. Ambition can easily cause others to get hurt. Ambition (or unreasonable espectations) often cloud judgement and can motivate a person to take action without weighing the consequences carefully. This can casue one to neglect others, or even to neglect certain areas of ones own life.
A good way to deal with things is to first determine "is this something I need, or just something I wan?t" Then assess "if it is something I need, why haven't I got it already?" Next determine," what do I need to do within reason to acheive this?" And finally "what are the costs to myself and others". Then finally ask yourself, " is it worth the costs?"

To a degree, they might mean disappointments. But think about what life would be like without any expectations. There would be no need to have laws, because no one would expect anyone else to uphold or abide by them. There would be no trusting relationships, because you would never expect anyone to be true. There would be no excitement over the future or hopes that doing a certain thing a certain way will bring the result you are looking for. And it's true that much of what our children learn and come to be has a lot to do with a parent who encourages that child in an expectation of what the child will grow to be.
Expectations should be kept in balance like anything else. They encourage and motivate. They enable relationships. Even if they lead to pain sometimes, they are worth it.

I think that having expectations, however realistic or not, can lead to disappointment, even heartache. I think that we all do some things with an idea of what we'd like in return. However, the best way to live is, do something because you want to do it. Don't get stuck on what's in it for you or what you could get out of it. Give from your heart because it feels good. Dump the expectations.

The opposite. If we have no expectations(a.k.a. dreams), how then can we make plans?
