Optimism

“Above all, do not lose your desire to walk: Every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness; I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it.” — Søren Kierkegaard

in times of intense stress or adversity, future-oriented thinking such as hope may be more effective than mindfulness in sustaining positive mindsets and action-oriented outcomes such as engagement.

i think maybe a useful tool for working is; whenever i start believing things are impossible, i am simply tired and need rest. i can begin again when i have the energy to believe in possibilities. i am not a negative person, i am just exhausted.
