Reading my Economics-Psychology book got me thinking about expectations and its vibrational effect. To have grand detailed expectations or to have low expectations- that is the question!
As with all things in life- it really depends on you and what feels good and how you best operate.
The bottom line is that you have to align your expectations with your belief systems. Some people out there are very goal oriented, very focused and very sharp minded (think of those business peoples). And for these, a powerful expectation is a no brainer, it feels good, it comes easily and ta da, manifestation station (Ooh I like that!).
For others, (like yours truly!), having expectations can create a little discomfort, it generates or usually exacerbates the control freak within us! So instead of being fun, it develops into 'it must be this way, it must be that way!' Otherwise we get ourselves into a tizz.
So why might 'expecting the worst', or 'not expecting much' yield very pleasing results?
I believe it would have something to do with a lower level of resistance. If you're not expecting much and if it doesn't go as planned, you're not as upset. So keeping it light and loose keeps resistance at bay.
Also, there's a psychological degree of relativity. For example, if you knew you got all the numbers in the lottery and were expecting a prize of at least £10,000,000, but you had found out that hundreds of people had won it too and so your share of the winnings was actually £100,000 (only!), then you would be far more disappointed than if you got a few lottery number right, expected maybe £10,000 but found out your prize was actually £100,000, you'd be off the charts happy!
I've also heard that those who come second in competitions apparently usually feel worse than those who come third. This is because they were a whisker away from being first. Whereas those who come third are usually happy to be placed at all!
So at the end of the day, it's all relative. As with all things, work out what does it for you. If you love to pre pave, plan and prepare then hold your expectations. If you want to be more easy about it, or better yet- have general expectations of well being, goodness and fun, then do that!
Experiment and work out what makes you happy. There are a million ways to joy, just pick that which is right for you.
All is well!
Happy expect-ing!!!
Lots of love, Nick Xxx
