How to Trade Expectations for Appreciation | A Fireside Chat with Tony and Sage Robbins (Part 2)

Tony and Sage sit down for an intimate fireside chat to unpack
the stress many of us feel around the holidays. We all have rules
and beliefs about how things are supposed to be or how people are
supposed to be. And when they do not meet our expectations, we
suffer. The holidays can hold a magnifying glass over these
expectations, whether that be family dynamics, budgets, or how
well the turkey turned out.  


Listen as Tony and Sage suggest a new approach: To replace
expectation with appreciation, to lead with gratitude and
thanksgiving instead of worry, fear or anger. Sage eloquently
calls us to take pause on the list-making and to-do’s associated
with getting ready for the holidays. And Tony provides us with an
invaluable tool for how to get more joy out of each individual
moment and experience. It’s time to make a decision about what
kind of holiday you want to have, to bring a new level of
enjoyment for yourself and to be a blessing to those you love
most. 


“What’s wrong is always available, so is what’s right.” - Tony

About The Fireside Chat Series: In the 1930s and
40s, a time when the country was struggling even more than it is
today, we had an amazing leader named FDR. He began doing evening
radio programs called “fireside chats,” designed to communicate
directly with the American people. 


At that time, 90% of people in the U.S at that time had a radio.
Today, 96% of people have a cell phone and nearly all have
internet access. Instead of being unified and watching all the
same things, and having a collective experience, now we're all
kind of separated. And we can see division in our culture. We
desperately need a form of unity, a form of connection, more
humanity and more kindness in the world.


Tony and Sage thought to bring back this time-honored tradition
of a fireside chat as a means of unity and compassion. We’re
entering the winter season, drawing inward into our homes and
into ourselves, reflecting on the hardships and blessings alike
this unique year has brought. In this three-part series, you will
hear them dispel their hopes and dreams for you this holiday
season, as well as share some of Tony’s powerful tools and
strategies to not only survive the coming months, but to step up
and thrive.
