Summary: Motivation and expectations are supposed to go hand-in-hand. The idea being - if you're expected to achieve a goal, your motivation kicks in to meet these expectations. In this episode, Dr. Lisle goes over a concept called The Ego Trap. Which is the trap we may find ourselves in if the expectations of our performance exceeds what we think we can reasonably accomplish. Nate G asks Dr. Lisle to describe this trap, how this process works, why it works the way it does, and how to effectively overcome it.
