I have found that managing expectations — mine and others — really works. Otherwise, my head is filled with assumptions about what I should or shouldn’t do.
When I was a Social Work intern, I witnessed a seasoned clinician naming what he would and wouldn’t do, very effectively managing expectations.
Here’s how I’ll be managing expectations for today’s blog: I will include my Twitter questions from yesterday, but no responses. Also, I don’t have many photos to share because I was too busy working and getting used to my new phone.
Today, I am dictating this blog for the first time rather than typing it, and I’m managing expectations about how that’s going to go.
I think I’ve done enough managing expectations for now, so here are my images for today.

Did anybody expect that the Daily Bitch would be managing expectations?
Now I’ll be managing expectations about this performance of my original song “Artificial Intelligence” — the sound and video quality are not professional (but they might be good enough).

What are your thoughts and feelings about managing expectations?
Thanks to political cartoonist Michael Ramirez and to all who are here for this managing-expectations blog post, including YOU!
