People’s expectations of you are determined by their limitations in life.
So easily you let other’s expectations make the decisions in your life, but for what reason?
Why do you give away our power to others without noticing it?
Your career choice, clothing style, what you post on social media, what you order at dinner. When did you stop living for yourself and started living for others?
Reclaim your life back.
The expectations others place on you often stem from their own perspectives, experiences, and limitations. When someone doubts your abilities or dreams, it’s just a reflection of what they believe, based on their own challenges, fears, or missed opportunities. Not one single opinion from another person is a true measure of your potential.
Their limitations shape their vision of what’s achievable, what’s right, and therefore what you should do. They try to make you fit in their inner world, rather than supporting your capabilities. You can’t make someone see if they refuse to keep their eyes shut. Understanding this can free you from internalizing those expectations and empower you to pursue your unique path, unshackled by the chains of someone else’s mindset.
Wishing you the freedom to live your life for you,
