Meaning beginner’s mind. It’s a Zen Buddhist term that teaches us to approach life with openness by dropping the preconceived notions of how we see the world.
Imagine a cup. We can fill it with anything. But often, we choose to fill it with expectations rather than possibilities. Here’s the thing about expectations, when we feel like we deserve something or feel entitled, we leave no room for anything else. Having high expectations creates a narrow view of seeing the world of possibilities. Lowering your expectations, however, opens a door to be surprised.
