Other people may not have had high expectations for me... but I had high expectations for myself.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think sometimes you have high expectations for people because you have high expectations for yourself.
I had such high expectations of myself. I was going to be the best mother, the best housewife, the best entertainer, the best nurse, you know - what it was, I was going to be the best. And I could never live up to my expectations.
I've always had high expectations of myself. I've never felt that there was anything I couldn't do in this world.
Obviously, everybody has their own expectations of you, but you have to have your own expectations for yourself. For me, I'm right on track.
My expectations of other people, I double them on myself.
So I try not to have any actual expectations for myself for any level of success or failure.
So, yeah, I can say I always set my expectations so high that I had a lot to live up to.
I wouldn't say I'm a victim of high expectations. The expectations are going to be there.
I try not to think about the expectations of other people because there's always going to be expectations.
I don't have expectations. Expectations in your life just lead to giant disappointments.
