    Expectations: Helpful to Harmful

    1.   We move through life with healthy expectations. All behaviour is on a continuum—can shift from healthy to problematic.  2.Expectations can lead to resentments if left unchecked. 3. How do you check this pattern of behaviour? Do you notice absolute statements? e.g. I never get what I need. Are you attached to outcomes? Do you notice pattern in conflicts—other relationships or repeated conflict in same relationship? 4. How do we navigate expectations? Honesty with self and other, vulnerability, communication, accountability, and negotiation of expectations.
