What is disappointment actually?

It is a feeling of sadness and dissatisfaction that comes from a failure of an expectation, a failure of something that you hoped for and it didn’t manifest.

Disappointment can either drive you, or destroy you, depending on how you handle it. If you allow disappointment to rule your life you will end up disillusioned. This will affect your identity and the way you create your destiny.

Be a creator of your life, not a manager of your circumstances.

When you are disappointed you lose your creativity, your divine power. And if you are constantly feeling like this, you will perpetuate the belief that life is a game you cannot win. As if you are running up and down like in a rat race.

So say to yourself: “Enough is enough. I decide to take control over my life. Yes, this disappointed me, it didn’t turn out as I expected but I am not going to dwell in these negative emotions for too long.”

Transform that disappointment into a drive that is going to push you forward. Trade your expectations for appreciation. The more you are appreciating, the more you do not expect. When you feel grateful you cannot feel disappointed.

You either focus on creating a compelling future, or you allow people’s actions and limiting beliefs to design your life. You choose.
