5 . Things to do when you aren’t hopeful about anything

You dream. You work hard. But often those expectations are not met. You don’t achieve your goals. Life seems so unfair when you do everything you can and still don’t get the desired results. You don’t want to do anything. You feel hopeless about everything in your life. What’s next?     1     Or should you hold on to hope? Here are several things to do to bring yourself back on track when you aren’t hopeful about anything in your life.

Don’t focus too much on controlling everything. Many external (外部的) factors affect your life and you can’t control everything. Worrying about things you can’t control isn’t going to help. The desire to control every situation only exhausts you completely.     2    

Avoid coming to conclusions too soon. We are sometimes too quick to judge the situation before it even unfolds completely.     3     Things aren’t as bad most of the times. You just need to take a step back and reflect on your thoughts.

    4     Hope is an amazing feeling that lifts your life. Never stop tr find an opportunity to improve your life. There is always an option. You just need to open yourself to it. And for that, you need to have hope. Hope motivates you, fuels you to keep working on your goals no matter what.     5    

A．Should you just drop everything and give up?

B．Allow yourself to open up to endless possibilities.

C．Wait before forming an opinion about a particular situation.

D．Are you upset about a particular situation not going your way?

E．Concentrate on what you can control or improve and forget about the rest.

F．Believing in yourself and hoping for the best makes a huge difference.

G．It makes you believe in yourself and ensures that your hard work will actually pay off.

When I was a young man, I though life was all about me — about how I’d make my way in the world, become successful, and get the things I want. But then the two of you came into my world with all your     1     and mischief and those smiles that never fail to fill my heart and light up my day. And suddenly, all my big plans for myself didn’t seem so important anymore. I soon found that the greastest joy in my life was the joy I saw in yours. And I realized that my own life wouldn’t     2     for much unless I was able to ensure that you had every opportunity for happiness and     3     in yours. In the end, girls, that’s why I     4     for President: because of what I want for you and for every child in this nation.

I want all our children to go to schools     5     of their potential — schools that     6     them, inspire them, and instill in them a sense of wonder about the world around them. I want them to have the chance to go to college — even if their parents aren’t rich. And I want them to get good jobs: jobs that pay well and give them benefits like health care, jobs that let them spend time with their own kids and     7     with dignity.

I want us to push the boundaries of discovery so that you’ll live to see new technologies and inventions that improve our lives and make our planet cleaner and safer. And I want us to push our own human boundaries to reach beyond the     8     of race and region, gender and religion that keep us from seeing the best in each other.

Sometimes we have to send our young men and women into war and other dangerous situations to protect our country — but when we do, I want to make sure that it is only for a very good reason, that we try our best to     9     our differences with others peacefully, and that we do everything possible to keep our servicemen and women safe. And I want every child to understand that the blessings these brave Americans fight for are not free — that with the great privilege of being a citizen of this nation comes great     10    .

10 . A few years ago, I bought a flat. It was a triumph of hope and determination over property prices, and the peak of a 20-year dream. The day I got the keys should have been the most exciting day of my life and yet, the second I opened the door, panic set in. I spent my first night as a homeowner in a hotel researching how to sell a flat and wondering if it was too late to change my mind.

I didn't sell my flat because I remembered why I had wanted it in the first place — but there are times when we get what we want and it simply isn't right. I've always found a strange disconnect between wanting something and getting it. Wanting is a place of possibility and, in a state of lack, the desire is strong. We imagine how this thing — a new job or relationship — can change our lives and at the same time forget that adding something to our life doesn't mean all our problems disappear. We create a narrative around the desire and, when we get it, and it is different to how we pictured it, we feel frustrated.

For me, this most often occurs in relationships. I have a habit of filling in the gaps with people, rather than getting to know them. I go on a date with someone and, instead of piecing them together brick by brick, I start to imagine what my life would be like with them in it. It shouldn't have been a shock that the reality in no way matched my fantasy — but it was. I knew I wanted out, yet part of me felt committed: this was someone I thought I had wanted for so long, I couldn't walk away, could I?

We tend to shame others for changing their minds. I think, however, it's far braver to move towards something that will bring happiness than to stay in a miserable situation to protect your pride. So, when someone tells you they've changed their minds, congratulate them on knowing themselves well enough, and being strong enough, to admit it. It takes a lot to come clean about getting it wrong, but the relief of doing so — of setting ourselves free from a personal-shaped hole, is worth it every time.
