How to Lower Unrealistic Expectations

Take the pressure of yourself (and others) with gentle, permissive hypnosis

Soften Your Expectations

Do you often get carried away buying into fantasies of how an event will go?

Are you tired of setting yourself up for disappointment?

When your expectations are too high and you find yourself imagining unrealistic things are going to happen, then you are likely to be disappointed.

For some people, this manifests itself in the endless search for a perfect relationship with 'The One'.

Others tell themselves they'll be happy "once I've been promoted" or "after I buy my own house."

It can even be something as simple as getting angry when your day doesn't go the way you'd hoped.

Reality rarely matches expectations

More often than not, the overhyped, instantly gratifying feelings of bliss and pride conveyed by unrealistic expectations ebb away to be replaced by disappointment that the fantasy didn't work out.

But this doesn't mean you can't find satisfaction and joy in your life. It just means it must be found in a different way.

Unrealistic expectations stop you seeing clearly

You may not have noticed it, but your expectations act like a filter on your perceptions.

Some people find they imagine their partner to be someone else for many years before some event makes them think "why on earth didn't I see what they were like before?"

You may even have hidden, unconscious expectations of yourself that are causing you emotional distress on an everyday basis.
