Expectations

 

Expectations are:

  • Silent contracts you have with yourself and others
  • Your beliefs and perceptions about the way things are or should be
  • What you believe SHOULD happen as a result of what you think, do, say or plan.

Expectations promote:

  • Thinking in the past and wishing waiting and hoping for things to be different tomorrow.
  • Blaming yourself and others gives you permission to avoid being responsible and accountable.
  • Pointing a finger at others allows you to deny your own issues.

The language of Expectations often determines your daily actions and confirms your beliefs about the way things are or should be.

What are your expectations about yourself? Your mate? Your family? Your work? Your life?

Client Feedback:

Working with Barb has been life changing for me. At first having someone that I felt accountable to encouraged me to start taking steps into areas of my life that I was unable to go by myself. Now, with Barb's help I understand that I need to be and feel accountable to myself, that is where my power lies....Just when I find myself grasping one realization, Barb's voice helps me to get to another one. I am now finding myself in a new place, and I am not as afraid to be myself. That was my goal when I started, I just wanted to BE, and be okay with that. I am much closer now then I was before I started working with Barb.
