I love it when I realize my expectations will always exceed my accomplishments. Good way to stay humble.

Really like that random thought. That is a healthy way of thinking.
January 30, 2014 at 07:26
Yeah, sorta.

Better than the alternative.
January 30, 2014 at 08:40
True.
January 30, 2014 at 07:28
I have no expectations. I must be pretty damn humble.
January 30, 2014 at 08:39
Or very busy.
January 30, 2014 at 07:29
Or drive someone else crazy.
January 30, 2014 at 08:40
Or that, yes. You have no idea how good I am at that.

Ah yes, I can relate to this. I’ll use your version of it next time I am “humbled.”

It helps, right after you wipe the piss out of your eyes.

It’s always good to dream!

Or completely delude oneself, yes.
January 30, 2014 at 16:28
What is this humble thing you speak of?
January 30, 2014 at 18:10
Fuck if I know!

Aw, thanks for random thought #63 (I accept it as a proverb of sorts) to which I can now refrain from vehemently asking myself, “WTF???” 🙂

I do that about nine or ten times every day.

In my myriad years of experience, I have only found having your accomplishments exceeding your expectations to be helpful when running from incoming rounds. Or upside down Formula Atlantic racecars flying at you. In either case, you accomplishment (running like hell) should ALWAYS exceed your expectation (I’m not gonna MAKE it!).

Now that’s one way of looking at it I hadn’t considered.

And the really sad part is, I paid good money for both experiences… 😯

At least I’m sort of being paid to do this.

But as Robert Browning said,
‘Ah, but a man’s reach should exceed his grasp,
Or what’s a heaven for?’
or there’s always,
‘If at first you don’t succeed, destroy all evidence that shows you tried’ Fahnestock’s Rule for Failure.

Sadly, both are equally true.
