True success is the knowing In your heart of contentment Of a life well lived and loved Success is who you are
We are but mirrors in reflection Across dimensions of space and time Such is the eternal truth of our being. We construct and deconstruct In our imagined cosmos The truth of our own existence.
We bounce and reflect our perspectives In and on to each other. We shine our brilliance. We mirror perceptions. We are vulnerable and yet volatile beings Beaming energies boundlessly. The task is to recognize the strength of our souls.
We need to see beyond survival We need to go beyond adapting We need to transform our life Beyond the present perceptions That we are conditioned by We need to release the fear and anxiety And apprehensions that we are living with We need to build the peace within.
We can touch transcendence Through faith, prayers & meditations For insights to stabilize and get embodied In such a stage of conscious presence As we build our self awareness We vibrate and tune into new frequencies We hear and listen more and evolve In our unique journeys.
Our expectations are our internal picture of what we anticipate will happen in future. When our expectations are met we are happy but when not, they set us up for disappointments.
Setting the expectations and giving clarity can be effective in a professional environment. Yet when we do not communicate it or when we set unrealistic expectations it can lead to anxiety frustration & loss of trust.
A few traits to develop that help in handling our expectations better.
Communication : Acing our internal and external communication establishes an understanding of the expectations.
Adaptability : An art of change management. In being adaptable to a new and different reality we learn to manage our expectations.
Kindness & compassion : Both help us hone our attitudes. The way we feel and emote during a challenging moment helps us manage and alter the situation.
Patience : A virtue that helps us to not be too exacting on ourselves and others.
Equanimity : Being non judgmental helps in being less edgy and more balanced in our expectations.
After all…
Less you expect Less you worry Less you stress More is the faith More the love More life
