The #1 Thing That’s Making You MISERABLE - And How to Fix It TODAY!

This episode is about expectations that get you in trouble. Probably as much as 99% of the stuff you are angry about in life is your problem because you have wrong expectations. There are some things we generally consider disappointing:- when people are unkind- when people take advantage of others (especially those who are less able)- when people tear down the success of others- when people think that they're owed something- when your kids or spouse make a bad choice that impacts your familyBut today, we're talking about the disappointments we face due to a lack of sharing our expectations and communicating them.  Especially when it comes to relationships, partnerships, friendships… Because just because you expected something or someone to be/behave in a certain way doesn't make it OK for you to be super disappointed if they are not. So, do you have invisible expectations? Are your expectations too high? We hope this episode will motivate you to check your expectations in any sphere of your life - yourself, your marriage, your job, your loved ones... Maybe it’s time to change some of the things you expect. Or it’s time for some tough conversations and redefining relationships with some people. Or you should go look and explore other employment opportunities.Also, if you’re taking things for granted (like expecting that no one you love will die or that you won’t catch a severe illness), maybe it’s time to slow down and be grateful.It will also help you avoid falling into the trap of victimhood when some devastating and disappointing things happen.There are so many reasons to tune in for this episode.Let’s dive in right now!Key Takeaways- Intro (00:00)- Where would Martin Luther King be without Caretta?
