We tell ourselves three big lies: about our past, about our present, and about our future.
We distort our past because we are constantly rewriting our memories, our thoughts are constantly altering our present, and our expectations are a distortion of the future.
Why are they lies? Well, our memories are imperfect, our thoughts are poisoned by bias, and our expectations are most often plain wrong. Nothing happened exactly as we remember it, nothing is happening exactly as we think it is happening, and nothing turns out as we expect.
Today, I want to tell you a story about expectations and how they can break even the most resilient of hearts.

Great intro, will have to wait on the members only finale, though “inspect what you expect,” and “inspect your expectations,” are two effective tools in my toolbox.
