STEPS TO A BETTER YOU | TRENT SHELTON #motivation

About this video

Shelton teaches that people continue to hurt us because we maintain expectations of them that they have consistently shown they cannot or will not meet. He urges viewers to reject negative thoughts that contradict their worth and to trust people for who they have repeatedly demonstrated themselves to be, rather than who we want them to be. Shelton argues that by accepting reality and stopping unfair expectations, we can avoid repeated disappointment and protect our peace.

Key takeaways

• According to Shelton, people hurt us repeatedly because we hold expectations of them that they’ve consistently shown they’re incapable of or unwilling to meet
