Podcasts about Expectation

Welcome to the Social-Engineer Podcast: The Doctor Is In Series – where we will discuss understandings and developments in the field of psychology.   In today's episode, Chris and Dr. Abbie explore the intriguing phenomena of dreams, the placebo effect, and déjà vu. They delve into the mysteries of why dreams can feel more emotionally intense than reality, how belief can trigger real physiological changes, and the perplexing sensation of déjà vu that leaves us questioning our memories. Through engaging discussions, they uncover what science knows and the many questions that remain unanswered about these fascinating topics.

What are you sowing into? What kinds of seeds? * You need to plant your best seed to reap a great harvest. * It's the quality of the seed. *Keep sowing and keep planting your seeds to reap a harvest. 1. Start observing and start planting. * It's not just the amount of seeds that we're sowing, it's the quality of the seed. * We can lose sight of our vision of the harvest if we take our eyes off the Lord. - What kinds of seeds have you been sowing? - When God can trust us with the little seeds, then He can trust us with more.- What we focus on grows.Isaiah 54:2Isaiah 55:11- You're faith will be tested with obstacles. - Don't be distracted by the opposition that you face when you're pursuing your vision.2. Our job is to plant and water the seed.1 Corinthians 3:6-9"I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who makes things grow. The man who plants and the man who waters have one purpose each will be rewarded according to his own labor. For we are God's workers; you are God's field, God's building." * What seeds do you have in your hands that you have been planting?*Start planting now and do it with faith that God will make it grow.3 ways to start sowing your seeds1) Obedience- Obey and listen to what God is asking you to start sowing. 2) Expectation- have faith that God will grow our seed and bring a harvest.3) Offering- sacrifice your time to sow your seeds and bring God your offerings of obedience, praise, and seeds.

Many believers live with relatively no expectation of God whatsoever; and if they do, this expectation may be diluted, polluted, carnal and or borrowed - resulting in little to no activity of the spirit, or the supernatural in their lives. But God invites us to believe him and call upon his name, To live in a divine, personal, ever growing expectation of Him to be who he is in the scriptures in our everyday lives.

Today's episode is a video solocast. Rather than just listening to it, watching it on my YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@melonybrown is suggested.Throughout 2025, God's been teaching me about the importance of maintaining a healthy spiritual posture. Episode 117, titled STAND FIRM, I shared about the posture of standing firm. The visual image of a hiking boot reminds us that the Holy Spirit empowers us to stand firm when challenges intersect our path. Episode 127, titled LEANING ON GOD, I shared about the posture of leaning on God. The visual image of hiking poles reminds us with our entire personality we can trust, rely on, and confidently lean because God rescues, delivers, and saves us during our trials.Holding on to expectant hope is another posture God has been teaching me about this year.According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, hope is cherishing a desire with anticipation or wanting something to happen or be true. While this modern definition of hope is accurate, it falls short of fully defining the hope believers have when they accept and follow Jesus. I shared the Greek meanings of hope and expectant. When I prayed about the visual image that could represent expectant hope, the Holy Spirit brought to mind a cup.Yes, the visual image for expectant hope will be a cup. I shared what I learned about the promises in Exodus 6 that are connected to the four cups of the Passover Seder.Is there a fifth promise and a fifth cup?I shared the Greek meaning of overflow. Notable quotes:·       The Holy spirit doesn't just fill you with a drop or two of hope. Nor does He fill you till you're full of hope. He fills you to overflowing with hope!·       The four promises or four cups were for the Israelites. But they are for us too! When you accepted Jesus and committed to live your life for Him: He set you apart as His own. He rescued you from bondage, oppression, and sin. He forgave your sins and reconciled you to God. He desires to have a relationship with you.·       Expectant hope is an active, faith-filled posture of confidence and a Spirit-filled expectation that God WILL fulfill His promises.Bible verses:·       Romans 15:13·       Matthew 26:39·       Exodus 6:6-8·       Luke 22”17-18·       I share 12 verses of God's promises that can fill us with expectant hope.·       Lamentations 3:21 fight verse for expectant hopeSend me a COMMENT or QUESTION!THANK YOU FOR LISTENING!

Series: RootedWeek 4 Title: Where is God in Pain and Suffering?Scripture: John 16:33; Romans 5:1–5; 2 Corinthians 4:7–10; Revelation 21:3–5Big Idea: Suffering is not evidence of God's absence but often the place we encounter Him most intimately.I. The Question We All AskPersonal story of suffering — grief, loss, unanswered questions.Everyone wrestles with: If God is good and powerful, why does He allow suffering?The Bible doesn't ignore pain; it shows us where God is in it.II. Expectation and Perspective“Suffering is often not just about what happens to us — it's about how we think it should have happened.”Our response to suffering is shaped by expectations and perspective.III. We Will SufferJesus promised: “In this world you will have trouble…” (John 16:33).Suffering isn't a surprise to God.Christianity is unique: God enters suffering through Christ.IV. God Uses Suffering to Shape UsRomans 5:3–5: Suffering → Perseverance → Character → Hope.Like salt, suffering can preserve and strengthen—or amplify pain—depending on how it's carried.Some allow suffering to propel them toward compassion and purpose; others let it suffocate them.V. Suffering Reveals God's Power in Our Weakness2 Corinthians 4:7–10: Jars of clay — fragile, but filled with God's power.Suffering strips away self-reliance and makes space for God's life to shine through.Our cracks become the place His glory leaks out.VI. Suffering Will Not Have the Final WordRevelation 21:3–5: One day, every tear will be wiped away, pain will end, all things will be made new.The cross proves God doesn't just explain suffering—He bears it.The resurrection proves suffering is temporary but God's presence is permanent.Conclusion:We don't need more answers—we need peace.John 16:33 — “Take heart! I have overcome the world.”

In this podcast, Bhante explores the true nature of Metta (loving-kindness) practice, distinguishing it from simply wishing or praying for others, which often involves hidden expectations that can lead to disappointment. It emphasizes that genuine Metta begins with compassionate self-understanding—treating oneself with forgiveness, care, and wisdom—which then extends naturally to others, including difficult family members and coworkers. Through this practice, we cultivate unconditional love and emotional resilience, recognizing that harmful behavior often comes from others' helplessness, and choosing to respond with clarity, compassion, and peace.

Send me a Text Message!In this episode, Mike breaks down one of the most important — and misunderstood — principles of manifestation: you don't get what you want… you get what you expect. He dives deep into how expectations are wired into your nervous system, why your ego, subconscious, and body are the same thing, and how negative expectations sabotage success even when you're doing everything “right.” This is a masterclass in energetic alignment and internal reprogramming — straight from the front lines of personal evolution.Key TakeawaysYou Don't Get What You Want — You Get What You Expect Until your nervous system believes it's safe to receive, it will sabotage anything that doesn't feel familiar.Your Nervous System, Ego, and Subconscious Are All the Same Thing They're just different words for the same internal wiring — the filter through which you create reality.Your Nervous System Was Formed Before You Could Choose Childhood beliefs and family patterns shaped your expectations — and they still run the show.Self-Sabotage Is Just Expectation Misalignment If you want more than you expect to receive, you'll subconsciously push it away when it shows up.The Work Is in the Body Shadow work, meditation, future embodiment — these aren't mindset tools, they're nervous system tools.Notable Quotes“You can't have whatever you want, because you get what you expect.”“Your nervous system, your ego, and your subconscious are all the same things.”“If you're used to struggling financially, your nervous system literally wants to keep you there because it knows how to operate there.”“What I haven't done a great job of is, what do you want? And then dig a layer deeper and say, listen — what do you really expect to have?”“In the battle between your wants and your expectations, your expectations will win every time.”Call to Action

Thanks to our partners Promotive and Wicked FileAuto shops aren't going broke because they charge too little—they're going broke because they're measuring wrong. In this episode, CPA and host Hunt Demerest unpacks the gap between what your shop management system tells you and what your financials know to be true. From the hidden drag of switching techs from flat rate to hourly to the simple tweak that makes your software reflect real costs, Hunt shows you how to surface the problem (productivity vs. pricing) and correct course—before your margins get cut in half.What you'll learn:02:20 – Expectation vs. reality: SMS shows 75% gross profit—but QuickBooks shows ~50%.04:38 – The pivot that broke the math: moving techs from flat rate to hourly + production drop.06:52 – Why unchecked hourly pay halves margins—and why it's so hard to fix later.09:12 – “Productivity” isn't just techs: counter, invoicing, parts, layout, communication.13:55 – Pricing sanity check: book time vs. your actual time; efficiency vs. productivity.16:04 – The core software issue: SMS assumes techs are only paid when you're paid.18:23 – The fix: compare SMS “expected” labor cost to QuickBooks actuals and adjust: set a shop-wide uplift % or per-tech rates, include benefits, vacation, unpaid work, bonuses, aim to slightly overstate costs (~5%) so you're pleasantly surprised at month-end.32:16 – Wrap: Most shops have a productivity and pricing problem—use SMS truthing to see it sooner.Key takeawaysFlat rate manages downside; hourly requires management. If hourly productivity slides from ~40 flagged hours to ~20, your margin vanishes.Don't let software mask reality. If SMS says 75% gross profit but financials show ~50%, trust the books and recalibrate SMS.Blend the cure. You rarely fix a major productivity problem only with pricing—and you can't price your way out of operational drag.Make SMS reflect true cost. Start shop-wide: if SMS shows $10k labor cost but QuickBooks shows $12k, increase internal tech rates by +20% (then refine per-tech if needed).Target “conservative accuracy.” Slightly overstating cost protects your bottom line morebthan rosy math ever will.Thanks to our partner PromotiveIt's time to hire a superstar for your business; what a grind you have in front of you.

Send us a text"This is the next generation AI-powered convenience store that will become the standard."When Lawson and KDDI made this bold claim about their Real Tech store in Tokyo, we had to see it ourselves. As AI implementation practitioners, we learn as much from ambitious attempts as we do from polished successes.The press releases promised, 14 AI cameras for personalized recommendations, intelligent avatars, robot food prep, adaptive shopping experiences.Unfortunately, what we found was No camera disclosure, "AI avatar" was a human on video call, branded Roomba, staff manually counting inventory beside computer vision equipment, non-interactive screens, zero personalization.We spoke English to the "smart avatar." It replied, "A little." That's when we realized we were talking to a person, not AI.This isn't about criticizing Lawson or KDDI, they tackled an impossible challenge. Japanese convenience stores are already efficiency masterpieces.The promise gap between AI marketing and AI reality is widening across industries.Three Critical Insights1. Marketing promises can sabotage good work. Customers felt misled by "AI-powered" experiences that were actually human-powered—even though human solutions might be better.2. Integration trumps innovation. 14 cameras don't automatically create personalized experiences. The hard work is connecting cameras to inventory systems, recommendation engines, and displays in ways that actually help customers.3. Expectation management matters. When you promise "the future," customers expect something genuinely different from everywhere else.The technology exists: facial recognition for greetings, real-time inventory tracking, gaze detection, automated checkout. The challenge isn't capability, rather it's system integration and user experience design.Here's Four Implementation Guidelines1. Start with specific friction. Not "AI-powered store," but "What customer problems can technology solve? Long lines? Product discovery? Language barriers?"2. Test quietly, announce loudly. Build it, validate it works, then tell people. Order matters.3. Be honest about automation. Customers handle knowing humans help remotely. They can't handle feeling deceived.4. Under-promise, over-deliver. Surprise beats disappointment every time.Lawson and KDDI deserve credit for pushing boundaries publicly. Most companies play it safe.But their experience reminds us that customer trust comes from honest, valuable experiences and not impressive press releases.The future of retail will involve AI. But it'll be shaped by companies solving real customer problems, not showcasing impressive technology.

What if the reason you can't sleep the night before a big round—or why you can't stop obsessing over quarterly numbers—isn't about golf or business at all…  …but about a childhood program that taught you love and belonging only come when you deliver results? In this powerful solo episode of The Scratch Golfer's Mindset Podcast, I break down how childhood conditioning wires us to equate grades, trophies, and revenue with self-worth—and why that creates a boom-and-bust cycle of stress, burnout, and inconsistency on the course and in business.  You'll learn how to detach from outcomes, reset expectations, and anchor to a relentless process so confidence rises, performance stabilizes, and results follow (in golf and life). If you're ready to trade scoreboard obsession for sustainable growth, this one's for you. In this episode, you'll learn: Why “results = worth” is a destructive mindset program—and how it formed How outcome attachment fuels burnout, anxiety, and relationship strain The difference between expectation and reality (and how that gap breeds doubt) The “law of lagging results” and how to think in 3–6 month horizons How to measure success by execution quality (process > outcome) How process mastery builds durable confidence that travels off the course If you've ever walked off the 18th green or closed your laptop at midnight feeling like your score or your sales defined your worth as a person, this episode is for you.  Get your pencils ready and start listening.  P.S.

When worth is tied to scorecards and sales, every dip triggers shame, fear, and urgency masked as “hustle.” Expectation–reality gaps invite doubt; manage expectations to calm your nervous system and execute better. Golf and business have lagging results—today's outcomes reflect the last 3–6 months of execution. Process execution (pre-shot, practice, post-round) is the only victory fully in your control—and it compounds. Scoring your day by execution quality builds a bank account of evidence and genuine confidence. Detachment isn't apathy; it's a disciplined focus on controllables that ultimately produces better results. Key Quotes: “Your results are feedback, not a verdict on your worth.” “Detachment is discipline—it frees you to execute the process with clarity.” “Manage expectations, and your emotions stop hijacking the wheel.” “Today's score is the echo of the last 3–6 months of work.” “If you want better results, measure what you can control: execution quality.” “Confidence grows fastest when you tie it to consistency, not trophies.” “You don't need bigger goals—you need a tighter process and fewer leaks.” Time Stamps: 00:00: The Impact of Childhood Experiences on Self-Worth 07:17: Understanding the Attachment to Results 13:59: The Consequences of Tying Self-Worth to Results 15:21: Strategies for Detaching Self-Worth from Results 23:08: Action Steps for Personal Growth

Are you a landowner or developer weighing an auction vs. traditional listing—or a land agent who needs a faster, cleaner path to price discovery? In this episode of The National Land Podcast, host Mac Christian sits down with Joel King—a 42-year real estate veteran (licensed across the South/Midwest)—to explain when auctions win, how to run them right, and when to walk away. What You'll Learn When to choose auction: marketable asset, real buyer pool, and the ability to create competition (not every property qualifies). Subdivide smart: use local regs (septic/well/roads) and multi-par bidding to expand affordability without torching community goodwill. Auction types, plain and simple: reserve vs. absolute, sealed-bid, and why Dutch auctions are rare. Timeline that actually happens: ~45–60 days to auction, ~30 days to close—about 90 days end-to-end. Due diligence that protects you: title search early, screen the seller (SOS), require bidder access, no post-auction contingencies, and order Phase I (and II if needed) for potential EPA issues. Price discovery by competition: the crowd validates value; proper increments and structure prevent the “sold for a dollar” myth. Marketing that moves the needle: rifle (targeted) > shotgun; local/regional/national mix; weekdays for commercial; avoid big game days; Midwest selling season is Sep 15–Mar 15. Creating value: utilities/road tweaks, owner-finance options, and bank/REO case studies where breaking into digestible tracts unlocked 6-figure gains. Expectation management: don't “buy the listing.” Need/want ≠ value (your four heirs wanting $1M each doesn't set price). This episode is a must-listen for Landowners who want a 90-day exit or real price discovery Developers/land funds, banks, trustees, receivers moving inventory at scale Ag operators pruning marginal tracts to strengthen balance sheets Land agents/brokers adding a proven auction tool to close tough listings Bottom line: If more than one qualified buyer wants it, a well-run auction can beat months on the market. Get the right team, do the diligence, set a real timeline, and let competition do its job.   Talk with Joel King https://nationalland.com/real-estate-agent/joel-king   National Land Realty https://www.nationalland.com

Welcome back to The Golfing Mind. Today, we're diving into what really swings the balance in the Ryder Cup — not just drives and putts, but something deeper: the mind. In this episode, Robin Sieger explores the psychological undercurrents that can make or break performance in match play, especially in those tense singles sessions. We'll explore how crowd energy—those roaring galleries, partisan cheers, even the hostility—can amplify nerves or fuel momentum. Expectation comes next: the weight of history, national pride, captain's picks, and media narratives all pile on long before the first tee shot. Then there's pressure—not just from opponents or course, but from the self: fears of letting teammates down, faltering under the spotlight, or slipping in form where it counts. Speaking of form: recent performances, winning or losing streaks, momentum through the week — these build or erode confidence. And confidence itself, entwined with self-belief, determines whether a player goes for a risky shot, stays calm after a bad hole, or folds under tension. By the end, we'll give you our verdict: which players we think will thrive psychologically, which ones might crack, and who might tip the final score in their team's favour based on mental strength more than golf swing. So tighten your grips, because this episode is about what you think as much as what you swing. https://www.siegergolf.com/online-courses Learn more about your ad choices.

In this Summer Coolers edition of NHL Wraparound, Neil Smith and Vic Morren head to the nation's capital to break down the Washington Capitals, a team coming off a quietly dominant 2024–25 regular season... and a playoff run that ended just as quietly.Washington finished with 111 points, 1st in the Metro, and 2nd overall in the NHL—yet fizzled in the second round against Carolina after dispatching Montreal in five games. But with no major offseason additions, the OV goal chase behind them, and multiple players coming off career seasons, is this team poised for a step forward—or a step back?
