Tag Archives: Setting high expectations for yourself thus making other people’s expectations of you irrelevant

Day 670

What matters more than how much people expect of you is how much you expect of yourself– that’s what I keep learning 🙂

It’s 8: 23 PM on day 670 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, feed myself     Chapati and chilli chicken for breakfast, drink  Green Tea by myself,  prepare and  publish my Disability of the Day feature, work,  feed myself  rice and curry   for dinner and brush my teeth once more.

Today while working I realized what matters more than how much people expect of you is how much you expect of yourself my parents have told me on numerous occasions with the best of intentions our money is your money essentially giving me permission to lay around and be nothing but because I expect better of myself I wake up every day and work my butt off. Do you set high expectation for yourself thus making other people’s expectations of you irrelevant?

I LOVE hearing from you feel free to leave a comment below.
