Quick Hits are 10-minute conversations designed to exercise your brain by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to hear other people‘s thoughts on a variety of subjects. In February of 2021 I and the members of my mastermind group thought other people might enjoy listening in on some of the lively conversations we were having. But we realized that no one was going spend 90-minutes listening to us going on about anything and sometimes nothing. Instead, we decided to pick one topic and have a short conversation to share. I took the reigns because facilitating those types of conversations sounded like fun. Over the course of a few months it grew from just members of our mastermind group to four (sometimes three if schedules go sideways) people from various parts of the world and from ”short” to exactly 10-minutes. Thus was born ”Quick Hits” hosted by me, Dr Robyn. I hope to get caught up with posting them here on PodBean at some point. As of this writing, I have over 100 ”episodes.” If you‘d like to see the videos of these conversations, they are available on my YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/DrRobynQuickHits If you have a topic you‘d like to hear discussed, I encouraged you to use the contact page of my website: https://drrobynodegaard.com/ to let me know.

What is the difference between being optimistic and having expectations?

"Don't get your hopes up." "Expect the worst and then you can be pleasantly surprised." "See the glass as half full." "Expect good things and good things will happen."
The platitudes about how we "should" see life are shallow and mostly useless.
I wondered how being optimistic fit with having expectations. Are they the same thing?
Even after this conversation I'm not 100% sure of my answer to that question.
Lauren Schieffer, Mario P. Fields and Simon Coles were game to have this esoteric discussion and we had fun doing it!
What do you think. Where is the balance in optimism and expectations?
