There are some great takeaways from the post, but I think the title "don't create high expectations" is misleading, and it says read on to understand the difference between expectations and goals. I'm not sure the article does a good job of explaining the difference and I'm not sure I clearly understand the risks of setting high expectations.
All of the greats have had high expectations for themselves and though frustrating when you don't meet those expectations I'm not sure having those high standards are a liability. I still think after reading the article I'd consider them an asset.
That said I do believe goal setting is key and that your behaviors have to match those goals. Goals are only unrealistic if you aren't doing the appropriate things to put you on a path to achieve them.
