Expectations
Higher Power, help me stop expecting so much from myself.
I set unrealistic standards, and when they are not met, unhappiness follows.
Help me be true to myself and only expect what I am capable of doing. As I grow in recovery and do my assignments every day, I am able to do more.
Your will provides realistic goals. Your will provides what I need to succeed.

The 12 Step Prayer Book Volume 2 by Bill P. and Lisa D.
