Have you ever defined your expectations? Have you ever thought about it?
I can be honest to say that I used to be quite simply in denial of what was to come as a result of my actions. 
It wasn't until I watched an excellent keynote by John Mayer for Berklee College of Music from 2008  that he talked about defining your expectations. A simple yet powerful idea of having a vision of what you want to achieve and how it influences your career now and for the future. 
In this episode, we will explore expectations, and goals and define our enough. All of these give us more yet more clarity for our present and future actions
