“I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.”
— Bruce Lee
What does the world expect of you? Nothing much.
What do your parents expect of you? It’s different for each household.
What do your friends & peers expect of you? Probably to be like them.
What are your expectations for yourself? Have you taken time to think about not what others expect of you, but what you expect of yourself?
I am still figuring out what I expect from myself.
I feel the pressure from the external world to be a certain way, but what way do I want to be?
A professional. An artist. A leader. A philosopher.
I’m still growing in each of these areas.
There’s always more to read, more to learn, more to discover, more to imagine, more to share.
