Releasing Expectations with Christine Hassler • 085

There’s a saying, “Expectations are premeditated resentments.” We project our past into our future or we hold people and circumstances to imaginary standards.But just because we expect something, doesn’t mean it will happen.This becomes a real problem when we pin our hopes on happiness on having our expectations fulfilled.It’s basically giving the reigns of our happiness to our circumstances or to other people.We all face setbacks we cannot control, yet we often forget that we have a choice about how to handle those setbacks. The “Expectation Hangovers” we feel in the wake of disappointment, failure, or loss can become doorways to tremendous opportunities and life-changing gifts.Managing your expectations is not about lowering your standards. Today we talk to Master coach Christine Hassler who specializes in radical self-reflection. We talk on how to pursue the right goals for the right reasons and also what to do when things don’t work out as expected.Today we will learn: The difference between Intention vs expectation Practical steps to releasing expectation in relationships How to stop judging your emotions Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/085 Sign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes from your highest self.  Get Mind Love Premium for exclusive ad-free episodes and monthly meditations.  Support Mind Love Sponsors Learn more about your ad choices.
