HOPE

Hope is the belief that, with effort and perseverance, we can overcome challenges and achieve our long-term goals. According to Angela Duckworth, author of “Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance”, hope is a key component of grit because it fuels our persistence. When faced with obstacles, hope keeps us going by reinforcing the belief that our hard work will eventually pay off. It's the mindset that enables us to keep striving, even when progress is slow or setbacks occur. Without hope, we may give up too soon, but with it, we find the resilience to continue pursuing our dreams.
