Hope well and have well.
-Proverb
If you keep on saying things are going to be bad, you have a good chance of being a prophet
-Isaac Bashevis Singer
Staying hopeful keeps your spirits up. When you believe good things will happen, you watch for an opportunity and grab it when it’s offered.
Believing that nothing will turn out right leads to a what’s-the-use attitude. You’ll overlook chances or give them just halfhearted tries.
Write about a person you know who is usually hopeful or gloomy. How has that person’s outlook affected his or her life? Describe a particular incident that shows this.
