Trade your expectations for appreciation and the world changes instantly.
The quality of your life is a direct reflection of the expectations of your peer group.
Why not make cheerfulness, outrageousness, playfulness a new priority for yourself? Make feeling good your expectation. You don't have to have a reason to feel good - you're alive; you can feel good for no reason at all!
Your life experience will never far exceed the expectations of your peers, because to stay connected to them there is an unconscious contract that says we're going to be within this range of each other. Now, on the other hand, if for some reason your friends have a higher expectation for life than you do, just to stay on the team you've got to raise your standard.
If you want to change your life in the fastest way possible, trade your expectations of others for appreciation.
So many people feel that they have to wait for certain experiences in order to feel the emotions they desire. For instance, they don't give themselves permission to feel loved or happy or confident unless a particular set of expectations is met. I'm here to tell you that you can feel any way you choose at any moment in time.
When life's conditions don't equal your expectations you are unhappy, have no expectations only appreciations (especially in the area of relationships)
Some people get certainty by working harder and saying I'm going to master something. Some people get certainty by lowering their expectations, going 'it will never work. And they lose their dreams, but they get their needs. The needs are not like goals. They're not like belief systems that are built into you.
Happiness is found in the absence of expectation and a continuous focus on appreciation.
Expectations send unconscious signals that people respond to.
