4 HABITS TO DROP IF YOU WANT TO BE SUCCESSFUL
Habit #1: Expecting yourself to live up to others’ expectations:
Your girlfriend? Your friends? Your boss? They’re all people who don’t have to walk a single day in your shoes and will never know what it is like to live your life. So, why is it that their opinions hold so much weight?
When you focus on meeting other people’s expectations, you’re forced into a position where you have to meet all the conditions associated with those expectations, and if you don’t you can end up ruining valuable relationships, and important connections.
Setting your own expectations will force the people around you to see you as an individual, and will allow you to define success on your own terms.
