Conquering Mt. Expectations

And 25% off subscriptions 😊

Soon, you’ll see 2024 out the door. I don’t know how it went for you, but for a planner like me, it was a challenging year. It got me thinking about expectations and how they help or hinder our experience of life.

So, this post is about expectations – love or hate them. But first, a reminder that the 25% off Life Intelligence subscriptions is about to end on 12/31. Don’t miss out!

Paid subscriptions get you full access to everything – Wednesday’s posts, the Archives, the Challenges, etc. You can also comment on posts so everyone will know how smart you are 😊

For your convenience, I usually include a voiceover of the posts so you can listen while you do something else. I know you like to multitask.

You know, expectations are sneaky little things—they can make or break your happiness in ways you don't always see coming. After decades of practicing yoga, studying Eastern Philosophy, and then getting a Master's in Psychology, my professional opinion boils down to this: Expectations are like carrying a backpack on a hike.
