If you were to be honest, what are your expectations of yourself?    

You may find yourself having high expectations in one area of your life, and low expectations of yourself in another. Relax, you’re normal! You might say to yourself or even to others: “I’m great at my career, and yet, I suck at cooking!”    

What causes you to believe these things?  

Without realizing what we’re thinking or believing, different levels of expectations can creep into our conscious and subconscious minds at various times in our lives. Look at these four types of expectations and see where you are in your career, relationships, emotional well-being ETC.  

#1. Zero Expectation. When we live in this place we’re depressed, have a hard time moving forward, don’t believe we can do anything in one or more areas of our lives, and have zero interest. We blame others. We Over and/or undersleep, and over or under eat. We’re separate from everyone and everything.  

#2. Low Expectation. We know in the big picture we can do it in our lives, and yet, when it comes down to taking action or responsibility, we just don’t believe we have it within us to do that thing. “Everyone else can, but, not me!”  

#3. Medium expectation. In this level, we per along day after day doing the same thing over and over. We’re neither happy nor sad. We are doing life and though we want a better result, we don’t see ourselves doing anything different to create a change. We know we have a choice; and yet, we tell ourselves, “That’s the way it is. I can’t do anything about it.” So, we keep existing in a mundane life floating along with little change in sight.  

#4. High Expectation. We believe all things are possible. We expect good. Good outcomes for all aspects of our lives; relationships, career, health, wellbeing, and prosperity. We’re one with spirit, ourselves, and with others. We rise up to challenges. We feel blessed. Infinite joy, love, peace, and power surround us enfold, and protect us. We’re the co-creators of our destinies.  

If you find yourself with a level of expectation that isn’t high or what you want, then you’re probably coming from lack, fear, and ego. The first step is to acknowledge you’re living with low expectations, to realize that this isn’t love or spirit-based and that you’re expecting and believing you’re separate from yourself, others, and spirit.  

You must switch your mindset and expectations to believing and expecting that there is only good in the world and in yourself. Knowing and believing that there is only love with yourself and the world. Knowing and believing that we all are one. One with ourselves, one with each other, and one with our source. Sit down and look inside. Pray, Meditate, and affirm, “All there is, is love.” By holding yourself in high regard, expecting only the good, and seeing love in everyone and in everything you’ll reach the highest type of positive expectations for yourself. From this way of expectation and being, you’ll change the way you see and change the way you live.
