What the Hell is My Brain Doing?

31- Breaking Down Expectations


Listen Later

Welcome back friends!

Last week we discussed how to react when our goals don’t quite go according to plan. In that discussion we touched briefly on this week’s topic- learning how to change expectations.

Now I know what you are thinking….

“But Julie I don’t want to settle! I don’t want to surrender my dreams!!”

I hear you.

And I promise, I am not teaching you to settle.

I know what it’s like. You see, I have settled in the past. I played small because that’s what I was taught…

I was taught to play small in my business. I was taught to play small in my personal life.

Playing small was my expectation…

And it nearly broke me….

You see…deep down I did not want to play small.

I wanted my personal relationships to be so much more than they were.

And I wanted my business to do so much more for my family.

So I learned how our brain regulates and creates these expectations.

Like so many things in our brain, it’s built around our safety triggers. So, I realized I could hack my brain over time to stop playing small and set big expectations for myself.

I can’t wait to share this with you on today’s episode.

Today we explore:

· Delving into the way we create our short- and long-term expectations about ourselves

· Working through the simple steps we can take to create new expectations

· The importance of flexibility and self-examination when working to create new expectations
