How many times in your life have you set expectations for yourself? Perhaps you believed you would have achieved a number of goals by a certain time. Or maybe you expected that you’d be married by a certain age. Or that your relationship would last a lifetime. While it’s admirable to set goals, and aspire to find love and connection, it’s also dangerous to tie our happiness to our expectations. Because when reality doesn’t meet our expectations, we often find ourselves lost, confused and in pain.

Welcome back to the Tony Robbins Podcast where we are continuing our breakthrough series – taking you to events like Date with Destiny, UPW and Business Mastery, where you’ll have a front row seat to life-changing transformations.

And in this episode, you are going to hear Tony work with Dano. Dano has been with his partner for decades. They’ve built a family and a life together, but they are finding themselves at a crossroad. He’s deeply in love, and struggling to let go, blaming himself for the relationship’s trajectory.

Tony works with Dano to take a new perspective on his relationship, and to learn how to trade his expectations for appreciation. They delve into what it means to be truly masculine in this trying situation and why loving his partner ultimately means letting her go.

    I’m in the middle of the hardest breakup of my life and listening to this made my cry my heart out but gave me so much perspective. I needed this

    VIDEO starts at 2:20 - I am sick of hearing this woman speak ahead of the content so I linked the time.

    I don't comment a lot on youtube, but I've written down what Tony said at the end about what his client could tell her wife. I've been through a really bad relationship and a bad break up and I showed courage and strength with prayers to drive to my ex's home and knock on the door. I've said exactly what Tony said and she step up and we talked about 3 hours and half. Just compassion, understanding and love sharing through our past and discovered she's happily in a relationship already. It sadden me, but also deprived me of my thoughts. I'm truly happy for her that she found someone and everything seems very fine for her and love is shared without second thinking. Whatever the reasons of the relationship, you deserve too to be happy for yourself and even for your ex. Thank you Tony.

    My high school sweetheart relationship of 5 years just ended 4 days ago. Thank you, Tony.

    Learning to love without attachment is the key here )
  • Thank you, Tony. There's something about hearing your guidance that has me take a deep breath and makes my shoulders raise, go back and align. It makes me feel like when I was in my early 20s and did not have much responsibility, which made me think that I could take on the world's challenges and make a better place for my love ones and myself. I love that feeling, thank you.

    Detachment, if you really love someone and that person wants to leave, let the person go.
  • @user-ov3uj6kd9p
    That is exactly how I feel...I’ve been taking care of people’s needs for so long. It broke me. I started to break down. I’m trying to feel significant in my own way without being told that I should be grateful for doing the same thing that I was already tired of doing. I feel like a horse with a broken spirit...but nobody seems to understand why even when I do explain my pain.

    🙏 Please share more of these interventions. Not only do we learn so much about ourselves but it helps to better equip ourselves to help others. 🙏 It takes the abstract lessons of life and puts it into real world, practical examples we can learn and grow from.

    Finding happiness in gratitude for what we have today and not tying our happiness to expectations for the future or on others.

    Wow! This truly helped ME identify why I want/need a divorce. I’ve been married for 6 yrs and 3 years of dating. I’ve shared and experienced life with my husband for 9 years but I felt that I’m the one that always needs to take care of things. I have to take care of my mom, my husband, my dog, my environment in general and I became so exhausted that I spent myself. I put pieces of me into my husband to make him whole, and in that process I lost myself. I didn’t want to admit that I’m important too and that I need to take care of myself because I’ve been too busy taking care of everyone else. I want everything to be amicable, I want no fights, I love him and share a bond with him but I felt spent and now I need time for me. I need to figure myself out, I need to love myself and take care of me now.

    When you set goals in your life, it means that you must start working harder towards those goals. Tony thanks for helping people around the world, love your work. 1st comment and looking forward to more videos such as this
  • @danieldavis9831
    This definitely helps me right now. Getting over a separation and being cheated on, but also the uncertainty of a new relationship I thought was developing. it seems that she is travelling in a different path than I thought/hoped we were going and recently I've had trouble accepting that whilst maintaining gratitude and compassion for her
  • @teejay9812
    let go of the addiction that is love. Key words.. LET GO 🤯👏👏👏
  • @Knowledgedad
    I needed this when I felt so lost and hoping it would get better, a week later I let her go, it’s been rough but she wanted to leave and would been selfish from me to keep her. I’m in process of healing I need to apologize for what I did and why I did it. Our ego keeps us from doing it
