Expectations



Question –
I expect much from those in my life.
Why is it that I often feel let down?

Answer –
Expectations are a projection of what you what to see and accomplish within yourself. The twist here is that universal law states that you can only receive from others what you willing to give yourself first.

When you come into relationships with fixed expectations, you come wanting to control the outcome. You have expectations within the relationship because of your wanting the other person to love you more than you are loving yourself, to be more generous than you currently are with yourself. The bottom line is, you are looking to be understood better than you can understand yourself.

Often people set themselves up for failure because they are looking outside for what they desire to experience within themselves.

You must first give away what you desire to receive. Start by giving that what you desire to yourself first.

Treat yourself as you would your best friend.

Your lover.
Give to yourself the unconditional love you so desire to have others give to you.
Love, true love, starts within.
