Anthony Venn-Brown - Author - Professional Coach - Speaker

Greetings!

Last week I talked about the lucky and unlucky people in this world. Today it is about expectation.
 
An expectation is a belief that something will come your way in the future.
 
How important are our expectations in determining what happens to us in life?
 
Someone once said. 'Your imagination is the preview of the coming events in your life.'

EXPECTATIONS

It doesn't take a great deal of observation to notice that people who expect the best in life usually seem to happier and life runs smoother.  And have you noticed that the reverse also seems to be true? It's not unusual for those who expect the worse to get it as well.
 
Is this a coincidence, luck or is something else going on? While you may not always get what you want, you will always get what you expect! The power of belief and expectation work just as effectively on your feelings of failure, self-doubt and limitation as they do on your thoughts of self-belief, success and achievement. 
 
It's a basic principle I observe everyday as a professional coach; we move toward and become what we think about most of the time. Our predominant mental attitude. People sometimes come to me with a cloudy future or no particular direction. During the time I work with them we begin to see possibilities instead of obstacles. There is a change in mindset and then that filters through to their circumstances. A new energy begins to operate in their lives; it's one of expectation, then things begin to show up.
 
What do you expect for yourself? Do you expect to do the things you dream about or do you expect obstacles, opposition and eventual disappointment? What do you expect in life, your career, the type of relationship you'll have? These thoughts are creating what you will get. That's why its so important for us to be aware or conscious of our inner conversations. Most thinking is habitual and a new way of thinking can be learned with a little discipline. 
 
It's a timeless principle 'What you'll expect, you'll get'
 
"Don't lower your expectations to meet your performance. Raise your level of performance to meet your expectations. Expect the best of yourself, and then do what is necessary to make it a reality." Ralph Marston
 
Enjoy your day

Anthony's experience, patience, and coaching ability brought an exciting session into my home office for 12 weeks.  I rarely look forward to working on personal growth, but Anthony's style and the 'Dare to be Your Best' workbook allowed me to take a closer look at my core beliefs and weaknesses in a totally safe non judgemental atmosphere bringing about self change that I can rely on to come into play when needed.   Although, there is much work ahead to complete before reaching some of my goals I feel stronger that the tools necessary to keep me on a solid path and provide motivation and understanding have been re-established on one hand and re-tooled on another.  Coaching has provided the ground work for me to retake control in a positive growth oriented manner.  Reconsidering and revamping my core beliefs has been a gift I will cherish for many years to come.  Understanding that I already have the answers and having given me the permission to tap into this inner source with trust and confidence was like having Christmas in July!  Thank you Anthony - this work in progress continues.

During the course of the 12-week "Dare to Be Your Best" program, I experienced a sustained, cumulative positive effect on my growth as an integrated personality.  Anthony's coaching has given me clarity of purpose. It also allowed me to focus on understanding myself (my strengths and weakness, my limitations and my gifts). I gained the insight to take action in my own and others' best interests.  I had already achieved 121 of my dreams/goals by the end of the program.   It has been a truly productive period at this transitional time in my life.  I would most highly recommend PSA coaching to anyone interested in targeted growth in any and all aspects of life. It was well worth the investment of my time and effort to set my course for the next decade and the rest of my life as well.
