Are We Products of our Environment or Products of our Expectations?

    We are tomorrow's future; every generation passes by, and we expect a nurse, doctor, surgeon, tax filler, lawyer, judge, teacher, professor, etc. We live to expectations since that's what we're mainly used to. To become better and better, you will reach a goal once you expect what you will do or where you will be. The main question we often hear is, where do you expect to see yourself in the next ten years? This defines products of our expectations. We hope so much out of each other, and that's just reality. 

   We must set the standards of our expectations to further progress and always try to shoot for more than we expect. That is how growth occurs. When I go to the gym, I often try to beat my expectations, but I have to set the standards first, or as we know, products of our expectations, to win that standard. I have always set expectations with myself so I can have a visual of what I'm aiming for. I consider myself a product of our expectations; you will know what's coming with this. Raising the bar is my motivation. You can't be outworked, so you must beat expectations. The expectation is to be successful and make a name for myself. In ten years, I expect to see myself doing the things I love with the people I love. 

  In my own life experiences, I have had people expect things out of me, whether It was expecting to be at a spot every week, expecting to do chores or favors. When I would go to the gym with friends or my girlfriend, I would set an expectation, telling them I would aim for eight reps but try to do more than I was supposed to. My parents are expected to pay the bills and provide for our family, and I'm expected to help if anything. My parents expect me to go to College to pursue my career further and provide for my future family. I expect to make a lot of money and finish College within four years. I expect to be a more fantastic version of myself. I need to set these standards. I have set expectations for my business goals to make them bigger. 

   

  We're products of our expectations. I expect myself to put all effort into everything I do and to work hard. The other Wes Moore made me learn what was supposed to be done. I knew that we're not products of our environments; we're products of our expectations. We can sometimes expect something from someone for a favor, which can be used as an example. I tend to expect myself to rely on my friends for something; I rely on a doctor to make me feel better when I'm ill. Athletes are required to do well, and the coach expects that; athletes expect their coaches to teach them and wish the best for all. We are expected to do well on exams, and we are all expected to turn in our work on time.
