All frustration comes from unmet expectations.

– Werner Lesar (could it really be an original thought?)Rate it:

An effective way to reduce own frustration is in direct proportion to the decrease in own expectation of an appreciation from others for the good work done and, more so, from the higher-ups in an organisation.

– Anuj SomanyRate it:

Complaining about your problems rather than devicing solutions to deal with them will only make you to live in a perpetual defeat/frustration.

– Emeasoba GeorgeRate it:

I feel that we will continue to have a non-violent movement, and we will continue to find the vast majority of Negroes committed to non-violence, at least as the best tactical approach and from a pragmatic point of view as the best strategy in dealing with the problem of racial injustice. Realism impels me to admit, however, that when there is justice and the pursuit of justice, violence appears, and where there is injustice and frustration, the potentialities for violence are greater, and I would like to strongly stress the point that the more we can achieve victories through non-violence, the more it will be possible to keep the non-violent discipline at the center of the movement. But the more we find individuals facing conditions of frustration, conditions of disappointment and seething despair as a result of the slow pace of things and the failure to change conditions, the more it will be possible for the apostles of violence to interfere.

– Martin Luther King, Jr.Rate it:

Laughter and tears are both responses to frustration and exhaustion... I myself prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.

– Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.Rate it:

Only Sex can decrease and even bring, into the zero levels, the burden of Sex; consequently, a victim of that becomes tranquil; calm and free from frustration.

– Ehsan SehgalRate it:

There are two types of seeds in the mind: those that create anger, fear, frustration, jealousy, hatred and those that create love, compassion, equanimity and joy. Spirituality is sprouting, and fermenting the second group and roasting the first group.

– Amit RayRate it:

A very large amount of human suffering and frustration is caused by the fact that many men and women are not content to be the sort of beings that God has made them, but try to persuade themselves that they are really beings of some different kind.

– Eric MascallRate it:

Frustration is the seedbed of creativity,invention and ultimately progress.

– Reginald GatsiRate it:

Frustration is one of the greatest things in art; satisfaction is nothing.

– Malcom MclarenRate it:

Love-diagnosis, diagnoses: Suffering from Love allergy; and for that the prescription, and remedy, also Love is; otherwise, such allergy prevails. A significant remedy of sex-frustration is only Sex that eases and soothes its symptoms.

– Ehsan SehgalRate it:

Man after the second half of the twentieth century is frustrated. You know that the foundation of all subversiveness is laid on frustration and this frustration keeps finding ways to subversive activities. And you also know that an uncert...ain present has made man pessimistic about future... therefore he runs after anything that glitters, be it fire

– Ibn-e-SafiRate it:

Perception without awareness is the culprit that leads to confusion.Awareness without action is the culprit that leads to stagnation.Action without commitment is the culprit that leads to frustration.

"Our Governor Sir, hardly does any day pass in Nigeria, without a report of a massacre of Nigerians by Nigerians or at least, coordinated by Nigerians. Hardly does a day pass, without the report of a major violent crime committed against Nigerians by Nigerians. Hardly does a day pass, without the story of how large sums of money are stolen by Nigerians who are in positions of trust. The revelations at the various probes by the National Assembly are heart breaking as billions of Naira meant for the improvement in the welfare and condition of living of ordinary Nigerians are brazenly stolen by those who they are entrusted in their care. All these are examples of violence against the people of Nigeria. The killings and maiming of Nigerians, whether by Boko Haram, Militants, cult groups, kidnappers, armed robbers, misguided youths, political thugs and other forms of societal vices by deviant groups under whatever guise, are all examples of direct violence. There is also structural violence, which is the violence that does not hurt or kill through fists or guns or bombs, but through social structures that produce poverty, death and enormous suffering such as: corruption, injustice and bad governance. The truth is that, no one will be able to properly address the problems of direct violence especially, those with ideological inclination without understanding the relationship between direct violence and structural violence. For instance, take a hypothetical example of a man who loses his land or fishing port to oil /gas exploitation because of unjust laws. His son loses her mother because of poverty and crumbling social infrastructure in the Niger Delta, his daughter cannot further her education because the surviving parent is poor. Yet, they live closer oil pipelines When she manages to go to school through community effort. She is told that there is no job for her. She becomes unemployed and frustrated. The community also becomes frustrated, and unable to sponsor others like her. They become abandoned and trapped in the heinous poverty circle while their God-given resources are carted away and used to fund a system of fiscal federalism that is a misnomer and unbecoming of any true federation. The fund is used to pay for the construction of the expensive city of Abuja, fund the huge corruption that we read daily in the newspapers, finance expatriate workers in the Oil and Gas Industry who enjoy highest condition of service, incomparable to any of their equivalent in the world, fund one of the most expensive National Assemblies in the world and provide for the lavish and hedonistic lifestyle of the privileged few Nigerians . Our Governor Sir, you will agree with us that hunger, neglect, frustration and deprivation of this magnitude IN THE MIDST OF PLENTY is a serious form of violence, capable of pushing ( indeed has pushed) the man and his community into direct violence. The story is also not different in Northern Nigeria, where years of deprivation, neglect, corruption and misrule by the ruling elites have led to the emergence and establishment of dynasties of poverty in the form of ‘Almajiris’, and now we all cry over the terror in the land, occasioned by the ‘Boko Haram’ insurgence. Let me quickly add that I am not by any chance providing any justification for criminal activities, I am only showing how one crime, for example corruption, leads to another. For example, the killings by ‘Boko Haram’ or militant/cult groups in the Niger Delta. This analysis in my view, is important if we must address the unacceptable violence, insecurity and wanton killings in Nigeria that is fast becoming a way of life in our beloved country."

( There is) disappointment, frustration indeed, particularly in this period when we are expecting incremental improvements in reaching places which are besieged.

– De MisturaRate it:

A hardworking employee should work for merely own heart’s satisfaction in a private organisation, but never with an expectation that the employer will either appreciate rightly or appraise correctly his performance to award him justly for the excellent job done; else the first the frustration will creep in into his professional life & then he will slip into depression.

– Anuj SomanyRate it:

A hardworking employee should work for merely own heart’s satisfaction, but never with an expectation that the employer will either appreciate or award him suitably for the excellent job done else the first the frustration will creep in into his professional life & then he will slip into depression.

– Anuj SomanyRate it:

A huge number of people are forced to live in small areas together, in mixed communities, and are agitated, frustration leads to anger. It leads to conflict.

– Natalie SmithRate it:

A human naturally requires Money, Shelter, and Sex for living without frustration, anger, and rage. Since as others, I realize it as well; however, I feel that as a need, not as my weakness; thus, it protects from every evil of this world.

– Ehsan SehgalRate it:

A lot of pent-up frustration.

– Jim FurykRate it:

A lot of people are pissed and s *** - out-of-luck when it comes to employment, health care and all that, maybe they don't join( the Democratic Socialists of America), but there's still anger and frustration with capitalism and its failings, and our government's role in not addressing those failings. This district can really show that this is a message that resonates with everyone.

– Luke HayesRate it:

A plan without room for change is a recipe for frustration.

– Paul KegelRate it:

A simple blood test that could select this group... and offer them more tailored treatment, including more intensive talking therapies, could prevent months, even years, of frustration and suffering.

– Marjorie WallaceRate it:

Activists are sick and tired of the go-along, buddy-buddy system, in particular John Boehner and Mitch McConnell and that whole political elite class that seems not to understand why they got elected, they are looking for areas to vent that frustration.
