Episode 153: Intention vs. Expectation The Alpha Male Coach Podcast

    • Society & Culture

Today’s episode is about expectation versus intention, and how society has done us a disservice by conflating the meaning of these two words to the point where even Google has the definition wrong. Expectation has become such a powerful force that it has overridden the value of intention, and in order to become our truest selves, we need to change this.
Expectation and intention are not the same thing, brothers. After listening to this episode, you will understand why it is so important that we separate these terms and learn to live with intention, rather than expectation. Expectation comes from a place of lack, is results driven, and turns us into either people pleasers or manipulators. If we live with expectation, we are disconnected from the truth, which leads to cognitive spiritual suffering. On the other hand, when we live with intention, we are living authentically, though the primary principle, without judgement or control. This is the goal, brothers.
In this episode, not only do I explain the theory behind the two opposing concepts of expectation and intention, but I also share with you a number of examples of how you can become more intentional in your day-to-day life, which is a fundamental part of your journey to reaching your alpha state.
