03: High Cost of High Expectations

Motivation and expectations are supposed to go hand-in-hand.  The idea being – if you’re expected to achieve a goal, your motivation kicks in to meet these expectations.  This is true BUT (and it’s a big but) ONLY IF those expectations are reasonable.  If not, motivation actually whithers away. 

In this discussion with Dr. Doug and Nathan, we’ll be talking about how this process works, why it works the way it does, and how to effectively overcome high expectations.
