Why do people expect more?

1. Positive Thinking: Humans are optimistic creatures by nature. We believe that good things will happen and our dreams will come true. This positive thinking motivates us and helps us achieve our goals. However, overly positive thinking can lead to depression when it doesn't match reality.

2. Lack of control: When we are not in control of a situation, we often expect too much. Because, hope gives us confidence that the situation will be resolved as we wish.

3. Low Self-Esteem: People with low self-esteem often expect more than they are capable of and capable of. Because extra hope helps them feel valued.

4. Social Pressure: Many people in society define success. Many expect too much to live up to this definition.

5. Mental illness: Some mental illnesses, such as depression, anxiety, or personality disorders, can cause excessive hope.

6. Meaning: People can use hope to find meaning and purpose in their lives. When they believe they have a purpose in life, they feel more connected and fulfilled.

There are also some potential dangers of over-hoping:

**Frustration: If people's expectations do not match reality, they may feel disappointed. Depression, anxiety, and even physical health issues may result from this.

**Risk behavior: In some cases, excessive hope can cause people to engage in risky behavior, such as taking financial risks or putting themselves in dangerous situations.

**Avoidance of reality: Some people may use hope to avoid dealing with reality. They may think in ways that are not realistic, which can make problems worse.
