As you begin to notice that you are generating this loop, in your terms, of expectations, visualize yourself as a kaleidoscope. For this, in a manner of speaking, is what you are. With every movement, you change the pattern. If you change the pattern and the one that you view in the moment is not pleasing to you, generate any movement, any at all, even a blink of your eye, and change the pattern of your kaleidoscope. View a different pattern.
