How Can We Keep Hope Alive? 2020 is Not a Lost Year

Despite everything that has happened this year, all we can do is keep hope alive. This is the time to be more optimistic than before; that is what hope is all about. It is with no doubt that it is a rare commodity more so at the moment when everyone is going through a hard time. None of us know what the future holds; we have to keep holding unto hope all the time.

2020 is not a lost year as it may seem, there are so many things we can still achieve amidst everything. All those goals we had set at the beginning of the year can still be accomplished. We just need to have routines that will make our work easier and plan our days accordingly. In some days, you will feel lazy to work; other days you will feel more productive, that is normal, just make sure you ensure you achieve your set goals of the day and remember the bigger picture which is those Big Hairy Audacious Goals that you had set at the beginning of the year. They should encourage you to keep going.

Remember that vision board you had created? This is the time to look at it; it makes all the difference. Keep focusing on them; revive those goals because you still have time to achieve them. We have a long way to go and only optimism can help us get where we want to be. And of course, these will not be possible if we do not have well-crafted routines that will give you the energy to keep on moving, this is what 2020 requires.

COVID or no COVID, we must be able to emerge out of 2020 stronger and more energized than we started; we must achieve our goals and make this world better through the goals that we had set at the beginning of the year. Things will eventually return to normalcy even though they do not seem like it. We, therefore, need to keep hope alive for our sanity.

I know this is not easy, but I am telling you today that this is a year we are going to celebrate even more achievements if we take advantage of every opportunity that arises. Yes, the future looks hopeless, but you can manifest your vision for it and how you want it to look like while working on your 2020 dreams. It can be done; all you have to do is change your attitude.

This is a year within our lives, we have not lost it as many narratives are trying to portray. It is still real; we can still achieve our goals. All it takes for us is to see the possibilities amidst impossibilities.

They will help us shift our thoughts. Let us be hopeful of the things that are yet to come; we will be surprised how they will get even better. Hope and patience are all we need to get us there.
