Wanna be happy? Have 0 expectations of others

Being grateful for when someone does something is wonderful and beautiful but .. so many people EXPECT .. as if they are entitled to something owed, I’d prefer people to be civil and kind, but it’s not what I deem is coming my way, I am not kind to others expecting them to do same, I am kind because it’s what I want to do and act, entitlement is a funny game. Many of us need to look a level deeper and ask ourselves important questions about “why” we harbor certain feelings and, more importantly, why we lack compassion for others' shortcomings .. #perspectives are fascinating, to say the least ♥️

Expectations destroy your feelings when it's not met. Hope we could all learn from this.

[shaynesimmonstattoo]

I expect that people will honor the agreements that they’ve freely made, and generally keep their word, and I’m routinely disappointed.

[oneswiftguy]

Man. I been saying this for years!!! I'm not here to live up to anyone's expectations, and they aren't here to live up to mine.

[TCBabcock]

I already don't have expectations of others. They still annoy the hell out of me!!!

[shazriniyusoff]

the moment i stop expect from other people is the moment i finally find peace

[omnipotentlenny]

This is SO powerful. It can also make you become more accountable for what happens as well as keep your happiness high

[dewadebadon]

0 expectations 🔥

Daily Positivity Energy! Thanks Gary!

[Gamingtv]

I have been expecting too much from friends, the market, from life, women, etc. Even demanding it from God/yelling into the air. I am managing my expectations from here on out.

[YogiCecily]

Keep in mind it’s all about HAPPINESS; right? The fewer and fewer expectations we have the more opportunities for happiness will occur. I recently decided to switch back to driving a bit instead of taking public transportation and I’m so much happier!!! I have to spend some $, but I not longer have to waste time sending messages to the rail company about how awful their service is. :-). Take matter into your own hands!

[Reizkay]

Gary same don’t set yourself up for failure never allow anything to decipher your self reflection. Pce man! Hopefully I get to meet ya someday

[Nycsavvynchicgirl]

Thank you so much! I can’t get enough of you! You are truly inspiring! God Bless always! 🙌🏻♥️👑🌟

One of the few things I agree with from what he said

[ratarakishika]

It's so hard though!?
I have known this fact for so long. I thought I don't really hope for anyone to care for me.
But in reality, it's always there.

I recently just came out of the hospital. 1 of my coworkers asked me how I was doing. Even though I know part of why he asked was because of the work load and responsibility we shared, I'm grateful nonetheless.

While others that I care about, they did not care. When they're down, sick or having problems, I always try to be there. I've asked, offered my help.
Seems like I care too much into my coworkers feelings.

I just had this epiphany this morning.

[levelupstronger]

Isn’t holding others to a ‘standard’, especially employees, holding people to expectations? What is a standard other than an expected level of performance?

[kantruhh]

I completely agree, but as a minor, there are things that I have to expect for my parents to do for me that I literally legally cant do for myself.

[Alai]

Nah this can easily turn into hyper-independence and isolation

[chrislaneDivo]

I learned this in Alcoholics Anonymous

[brentbrenneman]

I appreciate Gary's mindset here, but I feel that he's doing his viewers a disservice with blanket statements like this.

You can have no expectations and still be disappointed or unhappy with a certain result. For example, I could buy a service from a friend's business with no expectation that he would return the favor. But if he went to the only other provider in town for the service I offer and used them, that would still hurt.

I don't think that avoidance helps in the long term. You are going to be hurt. You are going to be sad and that's ok. You have to learn to cope with that rather than pretend you can avoid it altogether.

How to reach this level? I know I crave for social interactions and I reach out to people whether IRL and online but I am always disapointed. I wish I could just unplug the feeling and expect nothing from others family and friends but it feels impossible
