Welcome to Daren Daily On Demand, your most trusted resource to help you become better

every day.

Here's your success mentor, Daren Hardy.

I read a blurb on Seth Godin's blog recently that I want to share with you and then expand

on together.

The reason why it was so poignant to me is it was kind of like a karate palm strike to

my solar plexus when I read it.

The title was, what did you expect?

It was something like this.

If you run a rush delivery company, expect that customers will be rushed.

If you run a health food restaurant, expect that your customers will be finicky about

the ingredients that you use.

If you run a preschool, expect that your users will act like little children at times.

If you offer urgent consulting services for clients in trouble, expect that they will

be stressed and want you to work all night.

If you treat people with mental health issues, expect that they'll not always be patient

and long-term thinkers.

Sometimes we get what we expect and still complain about it.

It's a feature though, not a bug.

At the time that I read it, I had been frustrated why my team wasn't stepping up to lead

enough, why they weren't thinking about what's next instead of what was just right in front

of them, why they weren't acting more like owners.
