Life is going to throw everything at you, but do not lose hope. When things are not going well, the only thing you can't afford to lose is hope.
Why? Because when hope is gone, everything is gone. When hope is gone, the future is gone. When hope is gone, learning is gone. When hope is gone, life is gone.
My question to you is, 'Do you want to lose your life? If you love your life, if you don't want to lose it, no matter what, then keep hope alive.
Here is how to be hopeful in a hopeless world.Pay attention to what is going on in your life, but do not let it take your hope away. Pay attention to what is going around you, but do let it be the obstacle between you and your hope. Because when hope is alive, you are alive. And your future is alive. The fullness of your life surrounds you. So do not waste it. According to Cory Allen, 'The fullness of life surrounds us.'' You will see it if you pay attention to it. You won't if you don't.
Enjoy the things around you. Enjoy your positive friends. Enjoy your family. Enjoy yourself. Enjoy nature. And enjoy what you do. Remember, you are not alone. We are all connected. And you are connected to everything around you, so appreciate them because they are in your life for a reason. Cory Allen writes, 'The world flows like a river into all of your senses.'' If you want to know what is happening in your life, pay attention to how you are living your life. And if you want to know whether you know the world around you or not, pay attention to how you feel about it.
Live in the moment. If you want a better tomorrow, it is better you pay attention to whatever is going on in your life today. Tomorrow matters. But today matters even more. Don't rush. Take your time to plan your life. Live your life on your own terms. Do not worry about what the other guy is going. Even if you want to worry about something, it should be about your life. When you are present, you are patient. According to Cory Allen, 'Presence is patience.'' What do you think?

You can create your own life on your own terms.
And the best life to live is your own life.
You can live it. Do not let anybody tell you that you
can't create your own life. Of course, you can.
To start, you can start with the following strategies, according to
Paul Napper and Anthony Rao, PhDs.
Never stop learning. ''... to be an effective learner, you need to adjust
or at times suspend your opinions and personal beliefs,
sometimes even deeply held ones , to position yourself to learn.''
You can't learn if all you know is yourself. To learn, you must be present.
Learn how to 'manage your exposure'
''Managing your exposure to external stimuli will increase the quality
of your thinking, the quality of your judgment, and the quality of your life overall.''
Spend time with quality people.
Yes, with quality people. You need it. Why is that?
According to Napper & Rao, ''Spending time with empathetic,
optimistic, open-minded people and weeding out those
who have opposite qualities will boost your mood, elevate your motivation,
and improve your health.'' Life is short. So make sure you are
spending quality time with quality people. It is good for your dreams.
It is good for your life. And it is good for your happiness.
Manage your emotions.
If you want to enjoy your life, you must master your own emotions.
Do not let your emotions master you. If they do, your life is going to be
miserable. According to Napper and Rao, 'Increasing your awareness of emotions
and beliefs drive your thinking, influence your behaviour,
and affect your judgment will help you navigate life with confidence.''
To master your life, you must master your emotions.
