This post enlightens me. Expectations hurt and the unsatisfactory result that comes with it too. Then, I looked into my purpose for doing the work that I chose. For example, the job I'm doing is not high paying, doesn't give me health insurance, and puts wear and tear on my car. However, I focus on the act that it keeps me busy, allows me to see new areas in my city, be independent, listen to music/NPR radio, and driving can be nice sometimes. A little bonus is that I get to make people happy (bringing them a service).
