What is hope? Hope is a feeling of someone who sees the realization of what he wants as possible; trust in good things; faith.
Until then, all right. But its meaning goes further. Hope has a strong positive influence on people's ability to deal with problems, disagreements, and the stress of personal and professional life.
There are ways to raise the level of hope and thus define clearer goals and develop strategies to achieve them. Working on motivation and gains and losses, for example, are one of these ways. People with hope find it easy to identify the actions and paths to be taken to achieve their goals and are strengthened with motivation to use these strategies.
These are people who have greater control over stress and anxiety, are optimistic and have a greater sense of well-being.
People with a low level of hope are more likely to be sabotaged by self-deprecating thoughts and mental patterns that act as goal blockers.
- Snyder, 1999
People who develop hopeful thoughts accomplish more, have more purposeful and challenging goals, and find paths more easily to meet them. They have more competence and control, greater self-esteem and heightened creativity.
With this, a hopeful person increases their motivation both in personal and professional life and in this way becomes healthier and happier.
Life is not a cup to be emptied, it is a measure to be filled.
– Hadley
