I have noticed, that when my expectations are unrealistic, I end up in a rigid box that cuts me off from guidance and inspiration. Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ are ready and willing to give us the experiences that we need, but when our expectations are not where they should be, it becomes really hard for them to teach us and help us. Not to mention the disappointment that we might feel when things don’t go exactly like we had hoped. But if we have realistic expectations we can align our priorities and focus on the things that matter most!
