Expectations...

Bad day today...no lunch, no luck, no happiness, alot of expectations, and expectations leads to sadness if not met.

Why expect so much?
If my expections bank too much on people, there will only be disappointments...
My heart can't withstand too much disappointments...

Expectations are demands that put pressure and stress on ourselves and on others. They are compensations and by their nature do not allow us to receive. Even if our partners are quick to do as we expect, this will not satisfy us and we can easily become bored. We have alot of Expectations that trap us by the very language we use. 'Should','have to','need to','ought to' and 'must' are all sure signs of Expectations.

To remove stress, we should change our language to 'want to' or 'choose to'. If we are aware of how Expectations push partners or prospective partners away and only lead to frustration, then we become motivated to change. All Expectations are based on need. Needs, demands and Expectations tend to alienate partners, driving them to 'need their own space' and to take time away from us.

Conclusion:
Previous conclusion was "Never find a job with people-related criteria". But i changed it. =) Don't have Expectations of people, else find disappointment and sadness at ur door step. Leave them options and freedom. Life lives better. ;)

Decision:
Previous conclusion was "Decide not to work near Paya Lebar, Geylang or Kallang area."
After PoV card reading, "Let Fate decide. And use more logical reasonings to support my job options. I may wanna work at Tanjong Pagar, likely. Must be at City area. =)".
