My Expectations from Myself…

What do I Expect from Myself?

How much do I expect from Myself?

Expectations are Premeditated Resentments!

Are we living our life based on expectations that we have from ourselves?

What is my "Expectation" from myself on my "Achievements" in life - Is it calibrated based on the “Capabilities” that I possess?

What will be my funeral speech?

We all are living a life of uncertainty, wherein, expectation is what is considered the most likely to happen. Importantly, an Expectation, which is a belief that is centered on the future, may or may not be realistic. A less advantageous result gives rise to the emotion of disappointment. If something happens that is not at all expected, it is a surprise, which may be positive or negative.

Higher Expectations: If we are expecting too much from ourselves then we will always be unhappy and demotivated in life, irrespective of our achievements and accomplishments. This, certainly, is an undesirable situation or state to be in, as we will continue to curse ourselves no matter what we have achieved in our life.  

Lower Expectations: On the contrary, if we have lower expectations from ourselves, then we will be satisfied with whatever little we have achieved in life. This may result into a situation where we may not be able to unleash our capabilities and may not be able to achieve possible outcomes based on our capabilities.

Strike the Right Balance: We need to strike the right balance between our Expectations from ourselves and our Capabilities to ensure that we don’t get Disappointed.

Importantly, we could choose a step-wise methodology to keep our Expectations in permissible levels and achieve rolling milestones/targets based on our Capabilities to give us satisfaction in life. Thereafter, after having enjoyed success, we should raise the bar of expectations from ourselves to ensure that we are continuously aspiring for more and growing. Therefore, we keep enjoying and celebrating the achievements and accomplishments intermittently and continue to get positive vibes in life. Therefore, we continue to raise our bars of expectations to ensure that don’t get stagnant and keep growing continually.

“WHAT” are our Expectations in the areas of -

1.     Health

2.     Wealth

3.     Work/Career/Profession

4.     Self Esteem / Spirituality

“FOR WHOM” do we need to set our Expectations -

1.     Self

2.     Family

3.     Friends

Importantly, we need to ensure that the process of setting Expectations for Ourselves must be aligned to our "Purpose of Life".

Turn your Dream Life into Reality!

Start Dreaming, follow your Dreams & turn them into Reality!!!

 Are you dreaming enough?

Are you dreaming the right dreams?

Do you follow them?

Pick the appropriate Dream!

Ensure to turn them into reality!

If you are dreaming the right dream, your dream and aspirations should be strong enough to make your journey as seductive as the destination!

Dreams and Aspirations are greatest motivators and means of achieving goals.

Our dream should be such a compelling motivator that we should be seduced into working towards it. In this way, we would enjoy the journey as well as the destination. If you have a dream and you are following to make it come true then the action plan doesn’t necessarily is “Must Do” rather it becomes a “Love To Do!”

Imagine waking up with the life you’ve always dreamt of - Be it a better physique, Climbing a mountain, Writing a book, Earning money or success, Gaining power, Becoming a world-class sports person, Achieving strong purpose in our life or To be World’s best home maker!

We all need motivation to achieve anything. Our determination to fulfill our dreams will provide the required motivation. If the motivation isn’t strong enough, it means the dream is not compelling enough; we are probably dreaming the wrong dream!

When motivation is strong we create our own sets of rules and routes towards it. This is a form of self-discipline that is pleasurable and welcome. When we give up a beaten track and choose to be our own drummer, we have a greater responsibility towards ourselves…

Here are some easy steps; just follow them…

1.    Identify the right dream

While identifying the right dream sounds obvious but many of us struggle with this. We often struggle with the temptation of finding the perfect/ideal dream which can often paralyze us. Remember, this isn’t a one-time deal; it’s a continuous process or a journey. Just choose one and make that decision now!

2.    We need to commit to our dream

Now that we have chosen our dream; we need to commit to the same. Therefore, we need to take actions to fulfill our chosen dream.

We need to identify steps or action to fulfill our dream. Create step-by-step plan and create monthly milestones broken down into weekly deliverables and then finally breaking those down into our daily tasks.

3.    Let’s follow our dream

This is the most exciting phase – we need to be determined to follow our plan. Everyday, no matter what we do, we need to follow and implement our daily tasks that’ll bring us closer to our dream.

It’s not going to be easy so make sure we don’t make mistakes and don’t give-up half-way.

4.    Work Hard Party Harder – Let’s Celebrate

When we achieve our dream, we must reward ourselves. We should take time to enjoy that fulfilling moment and should appreciate ourselves. This will give us more confidence, enthusiasm and motivation to chase for our next dream.

Based on experiences, our dreams get bigger and bigger as we begin to achieve them.

Life will start looking to be much better when we wake up every day and all we will be doing is chasing to make our dreams into reality!

What are we waiting for?

Choose your dream now!

Follow your dream

&

Go ahead and Seize your Rainbow!!!
