“My boss should coach me more!”
“My friend should help me now”
“Should” translates to “I am entitled!”
I realized that at the core of entitlement is this phenomenon called demandingness.
Which is nothing but believing that the “people around me, owe me, in a manner that pleases me.”
I have seen over-demandingness in workplace leading to poisonous cultures and miserable results!
I learned:
1) We are entitled to nothing.
2) We do whatever is in our control and let go the rest, allowing the universe to unfold.
3) When we ask people for help, be patient with them. It’s called “help” for a reason!
Stop expecting, start earning every single time!
