Listen Later

Have you had high expectations after a job interview – but then were not chosen?

Were you sure, you will get the promotion at work – but that went to another colleague?

Have you had high expectations when participating in a competition – but it didn’t go as planned?

Experiencing these disappointments don’t feel great. But they are part of life and the goal is not to avoid them – but to manage them!

First, it is important to understand that being disappointed always means that expectations have not been fulfilled. So, how to deal with that emotion once ‘sh*t hits the fan’?

In this episode you will learn:

  • Why it is important to recognize and admit your negative emotions
  • Which emotional process you are going through after a disappointment
  • How to overcome your ego, bring back your energy and positive mood, step-by-step
  • I am explaining this process based on my own experience of a disappointment on a public speaking contest, that had happened to me end of May.

    Here you can find the ‘scale of emotions’ by Abraham-Hicks that I am referring to:
