What do I expect is going to happen in my life vs what actually happens? Is it always what I predict, or does it surprise me? Where do I expect things to happen that I don’t want? And how can I use that knowledge to form better results?
Episode highlights:
01:00 Do our expectations form our reality? Can I change my reality by changing my expectations?
01:40 I’m experimenting with being a pattern disruptor in my life to see what I can improve.
02:00 I surge in like the sea with my goals, and then I recede like the sea and back off and make excuses.
02:40 That pattern of abandoning momentum in my life comes up for many different reasons, but there is always an area of my life where I see this the most.
03:30 What if I actually expected I was a great business person? What would I do differently?
04:20 What am I doing that makes this pattern show up in my life, and what am I not doing that’s making this happen?
05:00 The areas of my life where I feel like I am slipping are the places that I don’t have the same passion as I do for other areas.
05:45 I don’t have a lot of answers, but I do have plenty of excuses…
06:14 If I take the energy I have for showing up for my kid and duplicated it in the places that I let things slide, what would be possible?
07:00 I feel very threatened by anything that could take away from the stuff and people I care about, even if that perception is totally misguided.
08:30 The values that have been holding up my progress in business are also the values that have boosted my presence in other areas of my life, and actually, I love those values.
10:30 It’s hard to ask for support for myself, but I find it easy to offer and give my support. It’s unbalanced but it’s where I’m at.
12:00 Wow, I really have issues with money, and asking for money, and receiving money… that’s where I need to do the work.
12:30 I’m responsible for everything in my life and in my business, and that’s fabulous because it means I can change anything I want to change.
13:00 If I show up with the expectation that I can change things now that I know they need changing, that’s so easy and makes situations so much more fixable.
14:50 What we expect becomes what manifests in our lives, for good or for ill.
15:00 When you consciously observe your expectations you can start to see the gaps that are forming your results and adjust from there.
16:16 What would someone else do to get the result I want and what are they expecting that I am not?
