Original Question Presentation] Read the material below and write according to the requirements.
The writer Mader once said: I slowly understood why I was unhappy, because I always expected a result. Reading a book and expecting it to make me profound, dieting and swimming expecting it to make me lose weight, sending a text message expecting it to be replied to, being kind to others and expecting it to be treated well, writing a story and saying a mood in anticipation of it being noticed and comforted, participating in an activity in anticipation of a fulfilling and enriching experience. If these preset expectations come true, breathe a sigh of relief. If it doesn't happen, you will feel sorry for yourself from then on. But when I was a child, it was the same me, I spent an afternoon watching the ants move, waiting for the stones to bloom, I didn't expect the results at that time, and I didn't discount my laughter and crying at that time.

Lower expectations and achieve a happy life
Wei Xiuyu
Dear Students:
Hello everyone! The theme of my speech today is "Lower Your Expectations for a Happy Life". Writer Ma De once said that his current unhappiness is all due to his own expectations, but when he was a child, he "didn't expect the result, and at that time crying and laughing were not discounted". It can be seen that the reason for whether a person is happy is not entirely the success or failure of a thing, but more about whether the result meets his expectations. Therefore, if we want to have a happy life, we should lower our expectations.
If you want to be happy, you can't expect too much.
The expectation of the outcome can give people motivation, and when the outcome of something meets one's expectations, happiness will naturally pour into one's heart like a spring. But if the expectations of the goal are too high, you will invisibly give yourself too much pressure, the process of overloading forward is naturally painful, and success after suffering does make people happy, but if you fail, the blow will also be heavy, where to talk about happiness? After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was precisely because the expectations of the top level were too high that the farce of the "Great Leap Forward" was created; It is precisely because fans' expectations are too high that they will be dissatisfied with the new movie that is not as good as Jackie Chan's back then. Excessive expectations often do not make people happy, but only make people miserable. It's like an actor walking a tightrope, either relieved after success, or bruised after failure. High risk leads to high stress, and high stress does not make people happy. Therefore, if we want to have a happy life, we should not have high expectations.
Lower expectations and achieve a happy life
The so-called expectation is essentially the same as the goal, and its happiness is also a sense of accomplishment in essence. Therefore, we can lower our expectations a little, at least to ensure that the expected results are within our means. This can not only ensure that you can get a sense of accomplishment and happiness, but also avoid the distress of chasing ducks to the shelves. Februaryhe was not famous at first, so people's expectations for him were naturally very low, and it was precisely because of this that his "Kangxi Dynasty" would make him famous, and this windfall would inevitably make me happy and satisfied. Therefore, lowering expectations is a good idea for a happy life.
It is difficult to be happy if your expectations are too low.
Lowering expectations is not about letting one's own incompetence go on, but about trying to grasp both happiness and objective results within the limits of one's ability. Expectations that are too low will make it easy to accomplish the goal, but this happiness is hypocritical, an excuse for the incompetent to let themselves fall, and this false sense of accomplishment can only exist in the subjective consciousness, and in the objective reality it may achieve nothing. Gradually, false pleasures will also become numb, and what is the difference between a person and a walking corpse? So let's not expect too low!
The level of expectation of the goal will directly affect our happiness afterwards, and too high expectations make it difficult for people to succeed, and they will naturally not be happy; And the happiness that comes from low expectations will only be painless. Therefore, we should appropriately lower our expectations when we are beyond our ability to reach the boundaries of what we can do. That's how we can be happy.
