Our discouragement is often set up by our unmet expectations. We have to make sure our expectations aren't hurting us by causing unneeded discouragement.
Discouragement is often set up by unmet expectations
1 - LEFTFIELD EXPECTATIONS
- As men, we should have expectations and we should work toward goals
- However, sometimes we get way ahead of ourselves and we set ourselves up for discouragement
2 - OTHER PEOPLE'S EXPECTATIONS
- A lot of men live their lives for other people.
- They are weighed down by expectations that are put on them, so they don't really have their own
3 - PERFECTION EXPECTATIONS
- I have to be "perfect" is a lie that is taking away the ability of many men to really make a difference in the world
- It also causes them to not be able to have intimate relationships
