The Maisie Hill Experience Maisie Hill

We explore how our social bonds and evolutionary history shape our need for recognition. Being thanked makes us feel good, while the absence of gratitude can feel jarring. This expectation can turn well-intentioned acts into sources of bitterness, especially in roles often taken for granted. It's crucial to shift focus from unreciprocated gratitude to the moments when appreciation is expressed.
 
Uncover how managing expectations of gratitude can transform your perspective and relationships. Learn how to find satisfaction in genuine giving and maintain your self-worth regardless of external acknowledgment.

Few achievements in life come without trial and error. Of course, some things do go right as you wanted from the get-go, but more often than not, the tasks we set to achieve our goals require repetition and persistence. Each failure is a stepping stone that will get you to where you want to be and provides you with opportunities to learn, refine your skills, sharpen your focus, and succeed. So ask yourself, are you giving yourself enough opportunities to succeed?
 
This week, I show you how to stop judging yourself when you don’t achieve your goals right away and the power of persistence in the goals you set for yourself. Discover why so many people judge themselves when it comes to their goals, and how to give yourself enough chances to not only achieve your goal but navigate the learning process that comes with each attempt.
