It has been about 2 months long that I have not blogged anything. Today, there was something that strongly made me think of people’s expectation in general.
Personally, I don’t know what people are thinking about their expectations because I haven’t asked them. Why not? If you were me, who would be the first person you could ask? The expectation I’m talking about is very wide. For example, it can be little serious like about the expected salary in the future; it can also be silly like, how many marks would you expect from a small in-class quiz. Just some of my friends have been asked me, and only a few can seriously answer. The point is that they are not expecting anything, are they? University students do not much care about this, do they? I don’t know either. If you are reading, ask yourself.
Why is expectation so important? Like, when you play a game, the goal for most players is just to win. The goal is like an inspiration that drives people toward their goals or success. If you are expecting anything, then what do you live for? death? Religious people do have expectations. It is not passion that harms human being. It is just like a kind of personal believes that always tell what to do. You shouldn’t seek for hopelessness.
The goal of the games can be more challenging if you want to score most; for example, top 10 of the world. Here, I’m saying that expectation varies from one to another. Is level of expectation so significant? If you aim too high, you might or might not achieve the goal harder; and the result would be more pleasant. I’m one of people who aim high but not too high. Why not too high? I have achived what I expected, see? If it was too high, how could I get it. I know, there are differences among people, If a poor man can do better with higher expectation, then why can’t a rich man aim too low and do worse.
Factors for the achievement of an expectation might involved other people. For example, you expect a love from whom you are falling in love with. He or she might never look at you, and you just can’t do anything. You sometimes want a device bought from a shop to be good, but it is not. So, these conditions are not expectable? and why not? Since the conditions are from others, the result we will get therefore depends how they expect in the opposite way to you. That you unfortunately bought a bad device means the manufacturer didn’t expect anything much from producing it; you can later buy from a new brand. Likewise, that teachers got badly-done or copied homework means students didn’t expect much from this homework; teacher can later grade them according to that. If no bad expectations exist at all, these conditions should be expectable.
To make society and your life better, people must be encouraaged to have high expectations and work hard to achive it. Even though those with low expectations deserve worse result, the overall society would get affected directly. Here is a little piece of writing just to make you think of yourself, and think of the others who are expecting good things from you.
