High Performance Mindset | Learn from World-Class Leaders, Consultants, Athletes & Coaches about Mindset - A podcast by Dr. Cindra Kamphoff

Today on the podcast we discuss expectations. Expectations can place pressure on us without even realizing it. To be our best more often, we want to stay focused on excellence, not perfection. We are at our best without expectations when we are focused on the process (the small things we need to do) and our mind is in the present (not the future where expectations live). Today, to be the best you that you can be – do your best and have fun. These two expectations will free you from pressure.  Power Phrase this Week: “I do my best and have fun!”  Quote of the Week: “Expect nothing, appreciate everything.” Anonymous
