Expectations create Reality

In discussing the topics of Appreciative Inquiry and Service Design, I came upon this summary that seemed very fitting for the end of the week.

What we ASK determines what we DISCOVER

What we DISCOVER determines how we TALK

What we TALK ABOUT determines how we DREAM together

How we DREAM together determines what we DESIGN AND CREATE TOGETHER

The anticipatory principle: “Whether you think you can or think you can’t, either way you’re right.” Henry Ford.

Constructive change comes from our imagination and the way we talk about our future

Our expectations create reality

This was taken from a slide that was part of an Appreciative Inquiry presentation by The Flame Centre.
