Expect The Unexpected

Today's post is dedicated to the dear reader who got me thinking about Expectations and Control!

One thing I have said for many years now is Always expect the unexpected . So first I'd like to explain what I mean by this.. As rightly pointed out by our dear reader, mismatch of expectations and reality tends to cause stress to us, right?

Now let's pause for a minute and think why this really happens.. Don't we expect things cetirus paribus? (that is, assuming that all factors that can influence the situation will meet our expectations?) And is that a sensible or a naive thing to do? 

Also, on the contrary, if you give too much importance to these factors, how can you achieve more than what is 'real'?!

All I mean by Expect the Unexpected is consider All the factors that can come in the way of you achieving your dream, so you can prepare yourself for it!

.

Coming back to the above image, if both the options cannot help you achieve what you want realistically, how can you do it, right?

The best solution that I see in the above image is the line between the 2 extremes 😊 

What do you think??

P.S. I know there is more to this, but I do not want to overload you with thoughts, so that's it for today! 😊
