Well, there may be many reasons for this but one certain reason is that all those activities, failing to meet your expectations, actually lack your assiduity i.e. the quality of being very careful to ensure that something is done properly or completely, with great interest and attention. It is true that if you don't give your best, you can't expect the return to be the best. If you do something half-heartedly, the result will often be disappointing. In fact, your time, energy, resources and everything else that you employ almost goes waste when you don't do things with great interest and care. All the great works of the world are the results of people's assiduity.
In the real life situations, there may be occasions when it may be somewhat difficult for you to maintain assiduity as, in the words of J. J. Rousseau, "Man is born free, but everywhere he is in chains." But, you mustn't forget that 'something worth doing is worth doing well'. The great thinker and motivator Mr Shiv Khera also writes in his book "You Can Win" that whatever you do in your life, do it wholeheartedly or don't do it. He further writes that when you do something wholeheartedly, you get some result but when you do something half-heartedly, don't think, you'll get half the result; the fact is that you'll get no result. So, make it a rule that whatever you do in your everyday life, as a student, as a parent, as an educator, as an artist, as a labourer, as an official or whatever you may be, do it with great interest and care, whether someone notices it or not. Eventually, the beauty of your work will be a source of pleasure and satisfaction for you and, sooner or later, this beauty has got to be recognised and appreciated. This appreciation will further motivate you for more beautiful work.....leading to more appreciation......more motivation......and so on...... . You'll be well on the road to success. But, all this is possible only when you are assiduous.
So, every time you take up some task, make sure you are going to do full justice to it with your assiduity, will you ?
Best of luck ! 👍😊
