How To Raise Your Expectations About Yourself

 

Who sets your expectations about what’s possible for you?

You?

Or is it your parents? Your teachers? Your friends? Or someone else in your life?

It reminds me of this joke…

Teacher: What do you want to be when you grow up?

Child: I want to be a van driver.

Teacher: Don’t be silly, your expectations are way too high, you’ll never achieve that.

If you’ve been told not to expect too much from life, settle for what you can get, don’t set your sights too high and so on, this is having a HUGE impact on your income.

It’s crucial you take charge and set your own expectations because this is the only way you can raise the bar to earn more and have a business you love.

Watch this 3-minute video to see how to believe you can achieve so much more.

Warmly,
