When You Are Dreading Something...
Manage episode 487199603 series 3327267
"Dreading something is, in fact, making plans for it to suck." This powerful insight sets the stage for a transformative exploration of how our expectations quite literally create our experiences. When we "pre-pave" events or interactions with negative anticipation, we're essentially programming ourselves for disappointment before anything has even happened.
Consider how this plays out in your daily life. That meeting with the difficult colleague. The family gathering you're obligated to attend. The challenging project looming on your calendar. By mentally rehearsing how unpleasant these experiences will be, you're unconsciously setting an intention for precisely that outcome. But what if there's another way?
And, as a special bonus, I want to give you FREE access to my signature course, Slay Your Year (usually $997)! All you have to do is:
- Leave a review of this podcast.
- Email a screenshot of your review to [email protected]
Simple as that!
