Raise your expectations

"You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them." - Michael Jordan

What do you expect from yourself?

If you're a parent, how do you encourage your kids to be their best?

How can you encourage and coach yourself? Not in a bullying kind of way but how can you use your self knowledge to support and motivate yourself?

What kind of things have you been wary about expecting from yourself?

Why are you talking yourself out of things before even trying?

How can you learn from things that haven't worked out perfectly to make this attempt more likely to succeed?

If it doesn't work out, be gentle with yourself before trying again but don't let yourself - or anyone else - talk you into giving up on yourself by not even trying...
