When the solution to a difficult situation doesn’t seem apparent, it’s easy to become Hopeless. I think most would agree that the COVID-19 pandemic would fall into that category. So now, HOPE is more important than ever. But Hope must come with ACTION otherwise it could end up being False Hope. I can hope for peace and serenity during these difficult times but what can I do to bring this into reality? I need to get into ACTION!
But what actions can I take to foster Hope? Well hope starts with shifting our attitude to one of optimism. This will include seeing the good in every circumstance. What are some positive things that may come as the result of this situation that I see as negative? Quite often there are unforeseen positive effects that come from challenging and even tragic events....and we refer to these surprise benefits as "A Bit of Silver."
Once I’ve been able to identify the positive consequences, which may have otherwise never happened except under these unprecedented conditions, I start to develop Hope. I start to focus on the good that can come from this situation and expect more Positive Outcomes. When I shift my actions and attentions to the positives then I can live in Hope while spreading this hopeful energy to others. Together we can overcome and emerge stronger than ever before. This is Hope!
