Impact of High Expectations on Amazon and Individuals
High expectations for Amazon in 2021 led to a top-of-the-world status where everyone felt prosperous and proud. However, challenges such as Jeff Bezos leaving, stock price drops, and layoffs altered the atmosphere to one of uncertainty and fear. The concept of 'expectations debt' emerged where meeting extraordinary goals was necessary to even break even, causing good results to feel like losses. This dynamic is not exclusive to Amazon but applies to individuals in various life pursuits.
