Hope Heals

by David Meyer

Primatologist and environmentalist Dr. Jane Morris Goodall, DBE, and Douglas Abrams – author of The Book of Joy – offer a detailed guide to vesting in and sustaining hope.

Succumbing to pessimism carries the risk of creating a self-fulfilling prophecy if your negative worldview comes to pass, says revered primatologist and environmentalist Dr. Jane Morris Goodall, DBE, and co-author Douglas Abrams, who wrote The Book of Joy. The authors believe that hope can catalyze action, banish division and darkness, and usher in a brighter, more sustainable future.

Nature’s Resilience

British naturalist Jane Goodall, also an environmental activist, travels the world sharing her message of hope. She defines hope as a survival trait that gives people endurance during hard times. Hope, she says, evokes what you “desire to happen.” But, as she reminds her readers, achieving the outcomes you hope for means working for them.

    With the help of Spritiual power, we gain hopes!!
    And By Our Self -confidence, we can change these hopes into reality.
    The beautiful condition is that
    Our goals must be crystal clear.
    The clearance of our goals give us
    strong will- power for achieving them.
