Our expectations are often based on what we have experienced. And, this process tends to happen automatically and non-consciously rather than intentionally. So, we don’t even know that we have these expectations.

This dynamic then often has us get in our own way because we create limiting self-fulfilling prophecies. For example, ~ A few people say “no” and then the little wheels in my head spin and crank out a story that “no one wants to buy”. Then I got out in the world and try to sell while bringing along the energy of “no one wants to buy”. And, I’m right. No one buys.

However, with some curiosity or some coaching, we can uncover these lousy expectations. Then we can hit the reset button and start expecting good things and positive results rather than the lousy things.
