The best thing about being human is that we always tend to have hope. And having hope makes us try.

The worst thing about being human is that we always tend to have expectations. And having expectations makes us give up.

When we try to be nice to our partner after an argument, when we try to patch things up, we have such good intentions. We think of all their good characteristics, and we are not as angry or as upset towards them. So we reach out and apologise to our partner, we give them a hug or a kiss.

But… if our partner doesn’t respond nicely, if they reject our hug and our efforts and is still angry at us, we immediately go, “See see??? It’s not me, I’m already trying!!!”

And we get even more upset than before, and that’s when all our good intentions go out the window and we give up. And the situation gets worse, because there’s now also the blame that we put on the person for not trying back.

This is why we often feel so frustrated that things don’t work out even when we’re trying so hard. We really cannot see that it is our expectations that are sabotaging all our trying.

This is where we truly underestimate the power of positive influence. When we don’t give up despite people not responding in the way we hope for them to, that’s when they actually start responding.

When you see someone everyday, whether it’s your colleague or even a family member who’s very negative or rude, they can ignore you when you say “good morning” to them.

But if you say “Good morning!” every time you see them over a period 100 days, they’re bound to one day lift their head up, open their mouth and say it back to you.

The thing is, most of us can't stick with it for a 100 days. We give up so easily when we see no results. We'll think "Hah! See!? No point trying, they're just evil!" And then we brush our hands off and feel satisfied that it's them and not us that's the problem. 

The real problem, is our expectations.

We have to know and always remember why we do something.

If the person doesn’t admit their mistakes , will we still apologise for our mistakes? If the person doesn’t reciprocate, will we still give?

It’s important to know the answers before we even begin trying, because if not, we’ll give up much too easily and get too emotional and forget about what our objective is in the first place.

It is when we focus on the objective and not have expectations that we get the results we want, and be happy. always.
