Expectation Vs Acceptance during internal conflict

Posted on July 21, 2019 by Ann Brown, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.

If we rely on meeting expectations of others and ourselves as a way of finding joy, we are handing over the steering wheel of our life to someone else

Instead, if we accept the way we are and the curve balls in life that challenge us and not be attached to the outcome, we can respond to the external environment in a way that helps us grow from the experience, stay balanced in our responses by staying in the driver’s seat and experience peace and calm along the journey.
Battles between realities provide an opportunity to accept. This does not mean being passive and accepting things that you can change. Instead it means accepting things you have no control over, so you are not unhappy and dissatisfied.

Acceptance has many benefits:
Positive attitude and improved health benefits
Change agility with minimum stress
Kind and compassionate view to self and others

I found the relationship between the word “should” and the word “is” and realised the gap between my expectation and reality could be bridged by practicing mindfulness and reflection which led to acceptance and letting go. I had the power of choice. Expectation and disappointment are irrevocably intertwined as due to expectations we imagine different and better outcomes than reality.
