Fire Up at 55 Plus

72. Is Hope a Strategy? You Bet!

Laurie Adams

Fresh-start Fall? Well, maybe this season you're stalled and just stuck. But today I’ve got hope for you … literally “hope.” “Hope is not an emotion; it's a belief that you have the ability to improve your circumstances", said Angela Duckworth, author of the best-selling book Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverence. “When we feel that we have true agency,” she added, then “hope is the engine of resilience.” I’m explaining how hope—your hope—is a fundamental first step in the journey of reinvention. It creates a foundation of optimism and possibility, which is vital for making significant life changes and pursuing a more fulfilling life at midlife-plus.
