Expectations
Expectations:
Whether we like it or not, a lot of how we feel in certain situations is based on our expectations. For example, if we expect a project to take a really long time but it gets done quicker, we will feel happy and that we accomplished something very efficiently. On the other hand, if we think something will take a short while and it takes longer, even if it was the same time, we'll feel very differently. Our attitude and mood often depend on expectations about how the day will go or how certain situations will unfold. We can't control many of the things that happen to us or how long things take, but we can control our mood and expectations, which can in turn make us more joyful. Taking a step back to regulate our expectations can make a huge difference in how we act and behave.
