“No one rises to low expectations.”
— Les Brown
Simplified Meaning:
When people are expected to do something easy or less challenging, they don't try their best because they don't need to. Imagine a student who is very smart, but the teacher only gives simple homework that doesn't require much effort. The student will do the homework quickly and might not feel motivated to learn more or try harder. In everyday life, if a boss always gives simple tasks to employees because they think the employees can't handle difficult work, the employees won't improve or grow in their jobs. To achieve great things, people need to be challenged and have higher goals to reach for. By expecting more from ourselves and others, we can push everyone to do better and achieve more. So, in your life, set challenging goals that make you work hard and grow, instead of settling for the easy path.
