Today, after tweeting an article about retirement, I have been thinking about hope. In the WSJ this morning [there may be a paywall to that link], I read that hope is made up of four components as per Anthony Scioli, a professor of psychology: - Attachment is a sense of continued trust and connection to another person – what I understand as a feeling that you do not have to do it all on your own….
- Mastery, or empowerment, is a feeling of being strong and capable—and of having people you admire and people who validate your strengths
- Survival has two features—a belief that you aren’t trapped in a bad situation and have a way out, and an ability to hold on to positive thoughts and feelings even while processing something negative
- Spirituality is a belief in something larger than yourself
Do I have hope? Do you? What does it mean if you or I do not have an answer to that question?
