Test Negative side of expectations

QUESTION 1: WHAT DO WE EXPECT WHEN WE INVEST TIME AND EFFORT IN A MATTER OF INTEREST?

It is natural when we invest time and effort in some kind of matter of our interest to expect the benefit of its outcome
Many times we put together a whole plan that can only be carried out with a small detail of an event that has not happened but that we are waiting for

On the one hand, it is logical that we have expectations for life
The negative side is when they do not manifest themselves as we expect
We get an undesired result and then it starts to have an impact on our mood
We constantly want to take control of what we want for our future and inadvertently fail to see the downside of creating expectations for ourselves

First of all, let us keep in mind that we can be fascinated by any idea of progress in the material as well as in the emotional field
We always yearn for a certain well-being that is subject to events that have not yet occurred
A negative aspect for our emotions when we expect something is to dissociate ourselves from the present moment, to neglect urgent priorities because of a created expectation
We pay more attention to our emotional state, we make hasty decisions and when we do not achieve a satisfactory result we fall into a state of abysmal depression from which it is difficult to recover

The mind, being such a complex system, falls into unconscious constructions that facilitate all kinds of reality, or so we believe
The illusion is the inevitable result of the expectations that we are born with the purpose of a favorable welfare
Sometimes we can deduce that many of our illusions are unattainable, but some are closer than we think
When we create expectations that are not consistent with our reality through illusion, we run the risk of self-harm and end up in depression when we realize that we have lost time

In many ways our expectations unwittingly become a negative element for our behavior, especially when we obtain a different result from what we were looking forward to
Frustration, that state in which many immerse themselves to justify a certain attitude towards life
The negative repercussions of frustrations through false expectations can manifest themselves in all areas of our interaction, especially in relationships
Many people, blinded by the frustration of expectations, end up blaming someone else so as not to feel responsible for the results and even unconsciously engage in types of manipulation

The impact of our past plays an important role in how we deal with present events and expectations
If we have suffered childhood traumas or have been promised things that have never been fulfilled, we may be bound to avoid the idea of failure
Many of these traumas rooted in the past affect our ability to accept reality as it is and for this reason, as a means of defense, we create expectations in order to raise our own expectations
The harmful part of our past influences the kind of false expectations in which we cling to for fear of repeating the disappointment

It is important to clarify that there is a big difference between objectives and expectations
Objectives have a predictable outcome and are more intentional
We usually set a time-bound goal that requires effort and work
None of the above

The first thing that false expectations influence is the idealization of a false self-confidence
We can get the idea that we are in a safe environment with what we believe is already a truth and end up like Penelope in an endless fantasy
Greatly affecting our self-esteem by creating a state of emotional dependence on an event or person, gradually incurring in personality disorders
We lose control over the correct management of our emotions and without realizing it, we end up assuming attitudes beyond our control
