The Influence of Expectations
Expectations are enveloped in people’s daily lives. For instance, a person may expect to wake up before the alarm rings, get to the bus station before the bus arrives, and even expect a raise at work. All these expectations that have been set can go either way, on the one hand as working out as was expected and, on the hand, not going as was expected, leading to disappointment. For instance, a person who had planned out their morning routine till getting to work before 9 am may get disappointed if they sleep past the alarm, which eventually causes them to miss their bus, doubling on their disappointment. Accordingly, it is apparent that expectations influence a person’s opinion of others, and I have seen that for myself numerous times. Do you need any help for completing your assignment ?

The influence expectations had on me was witnessed during my time in High School. I was meeting up with a friend who was always late no matter what, be it going to school or hanging out after school. On that fateful day, I took my time walking towards the meeting point, knowing I would have a lot of extra time to carry on more activities. As I walked closer to the meeting spot, I spotted my friend who was facing me, smiling, and for some reason, I had never felt happier despite being astonished by the unexpected turn of events.
My expectations influenced me because I had developed an opinion of my friend. Because they would always be late, I always expected them never to make it in time. Because I expected the lateness, my mood would also change, as aforementioned; however, on that fateful day, despite expecting the expected, my expectations led to a more positive appraisal. The result was joyous, and I wished they would always make it on time.
