Expectations Are Not Standards

EXPECTATIONS and STANDARDS are not the same thing. 

Expectations are our ideas about how we want certain situations to unfold and what we think that others should say, do, or be. 

Standards speak to a level of quality we set for ourselves. Standards are directly related to our core values. 

I invite you to consider these questions:

• Is this expectation reasonable?
• Am I willing to honor someone else’s capacity for or willingness to meet my expectations?
• What value-based standards do you have for yourself or for others?

When it comes to podcasting, the best way to “tip the bartender” is by heading over to Apple Podcasts and leaving a 5-star review. This helps me imbibe other listeners with the secret sauce of emotional intelligence. And, make sure to “order another round”  by hitting SUBSCRIBE. 

 

If you’re thirsty for more than this daily shot and ready to intoxicate the hell out of your personal and professional life, I’d love to invite you to coach one-on-one with me.
