Let go of expectation and look within

When we do something for someone that they didn’t ask for (something we feel is in their best interest or we know it’s for their greater good) we hope and desire they will appreciate it. When we add expectations in and just expect they will appreciate the supposed good deed, what are we really doing?

We are forcing what we except. It’s our truth our wants and needs that are wrapped up in that expectation.

The reality is when we think we are helping whether they ask for help or not we need to let go of the outcome. Holding them accountable for our expectations is insane. It will drive you nuts. It leads to disappointment and resentment.

Imagine someone you love doing something for you from their perspective and you don’t appreciate it (the way they need to see appreciation) because you were not ready, you don’t see it from the other persons view point or your expectations are different then your loved ones. So they are hurt they withdraw and get annoyed at you. Then you get annoyed and the story goes on…. What expectations do you have?

So the simple answer, whatever you do let go of the outcome! How do you do that? Let go of the expectation and look within.
