Are you living a "naked" life? Is the core of your everyday life in line with your true authentic self? If not, it's time to strip away the mediocrity of keeping up with other people's expectations. You see, trying to live up to other people's expectations is almost the same as walking around in borrowed clothes. You might come out looking stylish, but deep down, you know that's not who you truly are.
In today's episode, Les describes what it's like to live a truly "naked" life. He explains the role other people's expectations play in our lives and how you can learn to manage them in a healthy way.
Expectations are not as awful as most people would like to believe. We all have them, and they are a natural part of modern living. Problems arise when we place the expectations of others above our own needs.
