Disappointment quotes- featured image

Many things may disappoint you at your various stages of life. The root cause of disappointment is expectations. We feel hopeless when things don’t happen as we anticipated. We seldom understand we cannot know everything, cannot please everyone and cannot get everything. As a result, we are less happy with what we have and sadder about what we do not.

We keep comparing ourselves with others and finding what we lack that other relatives and friends have. However, it’s a good thing if it encourages you to keep trying but not if you use it as a reason for becoming sad all the time. It’s destructive. A disappointed person might become angry, frustrated or even isolate themselves if they stick to the problem for long without encouraging themselves for finding the solution. It takes the person nowhere.

However, if you handle and manage the phase patiently and mindfully, you can certainly come out of it shining even brighter. It’s the time when you should ponder upon what went off and why! This attitude will open up your mind. Giving yourself some quality time will make you a better decision-maker. You will step out even more robust.

If you feel disappointed, it’s not the time to criticize yourself or think negative. It should not make you a victim and vulnerable, inviting people to take advantage and discourage you even more. Don’t hold on to the fear, regret, disappointment for long. Be like water. Make your way anyway and keep flowing. Remember, stagnant water spoils.

On the other side, it is best to talk to your loved ones about how you feel. It might help you see an accurate picture that is different from what you think. If you find no one, it’s even more significant because you are free to talk to yourself who cares about you. After all, who knows you better than you! And who could be more honest with you than you themselves!

Suppressing the emotion is as equally wrong as sticking to it for long. So, accept what you feel and let it go. Dust yourself off all the regrets and accountabilities and start an afresh journey with more enthusiasm and a realistic mind. You should be okay with failures as you would be with success. It is so amazing to embrace the process and journey that teach you values and great lessons. This learning helps you achieve even better and bigger than what you could not. To encourage you during difficult times, I want to share some of my favourite disappointment quotes with you all.
