The Expectations of Others - Rev. Paul Gonyea

"The first thing we need to recognize is that expectations, whether they're ours or someone else's, can (and frequently do) affect the direction our creative energy takes. That means, if we aren't taking full responsibility for our own beliefs, expectations will either push or pull our thoughts in a certain direction. They also, depending upon what the expectation is or who is expressing it, can determine how motivated we are to have that expectation come true."
