#15 Are your expectations getting you down

What this episode covers

Most people are completely oblivious to the power that their own thoughts have. Beliefs carry emotion, and emotion turns to action. Those beliefs then influence the way we live. Whether you hold negative or positive beliefs about relationships, finances or your own abilities, they all carve out the path that is your life. We have no limitations in life. The only limitations we have are the ones we place on ourselves. Think about your negative outlooks from these areas in the first step. Now, ask yourself, is that true? For instance, you may believe you can’t go any higher in your industry. But is that really true? When you reframe your thinking to a series of empowering beliefs, you’ll find that you’re most likely making excuses. It’s usually not about a lack of resources but a lack of resourcefulness. Maybe you haven’t pushed hard enough. Maybe you’re not putting in the time it takes to advance at work. Maybe you need to change your approach.
