Expectation is the mother of all frustration.

Expectation is the mother of all frustration.

Summary

This quote means that when we have certain expectations about how things should be or how people should act, we set ourselves up for frustration if those expectations are not met. When we place specific demands or rely on certain outcomes, we become vulnerable to disappointment and dissatisfaction. By letting go of expectations and approaching situations with an open mind, we enable ourselves to accept reality as it is and alleviate unnecessary frustration in our lives.
