Episode Details

You have an important meeting coming up that could mean big things for your business, but you want to temper your expectations. Getting your hopes up could end in major disappointment, right? This is a trap a lot of us fall into. It's called "loss aversion" and it's often born out of our fear of our feeling disappointed. The problem is, this also can greatly limit our ability to succeed.

This week's episode of the podcast is all about expectations and how "getting our hopes up" can in fact push us to more favorable outcomes. We cover the research supporting why you should set high expectations, the impact it has on how we interact with others, and from which part of the expectation you should disassociate.
