Raising the Bar of Expectations

"Achievement is largely the product

of steadily raising one's level."

Jack Nicklaus, professional golfer

  

As I see it . . . . . . . .

Raising the bar of expectations

When we establish crystal clear expectations for our future, we create the foundation in our minds on how we will achieve our maximum potential.

Steadily raising the bar of our expectations and aspirations just a little higher and a little out of our reach cause us to stretch out of our comfort zone. As we stretch out of our comfort zone we stretch our potential, as a result our potential steadily grows and will never return to its previous size.

Continually raising the bar of expectations will maximize the level our achievements.

Its the experience to promote. An agent, broker with a sloagan about how great the agent is could be turned around to something the buyer can relate to, is looking for. "Save time, gas, money" are pretty attractive reasons to go in to that agent's tent. And have some fun. Expect more, get more.

If we only raise our expectations of ourselves a little, that's what we will get. If we raise it a huge amount, the results can be amazing.

Having clear expectations often enables one to believe rasing that bar is part of a bigger plan on the road to success.

I love this!  As we stretch out of our comfort zone we stretch our potential, as a result our potential steadily grows and will never return to its previous size.  thought I had with reading this is if we raise the level of service we give our clients, they will never return to their original expectations.
