Emotional expectation

As a human being, we have a lot of expectations. We are always optimistic in life in most of the things we do. We expect a lot from life. When alone, we usually think quietly on the things we wish will happen in our life. We expect a lot from life. But life always have it's ways of adjusting itself either you like it or not. For instance when we want to go for a job interview, we wish to be employed or chosen out of the rest, because we all belive we are unique one way or the other. When you play a lottery draw, you wish and pray that you win. When you are in a relationship you expect it to go smoothly and you shouldn't be cheated on. And you expect that you will be showered with love in the relationship. When writing an exam that you studied you expect to pass it perfectly.
But when all these doesn't work out the way we plan them. We feel like the most hated person in the world. We feel like God's love is not available in our life. But such is life. Life is not always what we expect it to be. Life is not fair we know that. But we should always learn to lower our expectations in life. Because that is the beginning of heartbreak. Once you realize that your expectations cannot change people, the better off you will be. The problem will ALWAYS arise when the expectations do not materialize as expected.
Unfortunately not everyone manages expectations to the highest degree, if more did, we could avoid a lot of the day-to-day drama that goes on in every business operation. Leaders who know how to "better" manage expectations are able to more seamlessly navigate the choppy waters of their business and life. Why? Because they know how to communicate, organize, and direct conversations to properly enroll others in getting projects and tasks done… by being pragmatic and effectively influential.
With this I can conclude in my own opinion that the only way of reducing emotional expectations is to surrender to God. And expect nothing from life but always have positive thoughts.
