In life, when hope is lost, it is said that all is lost. My intention of writing this article is to bring some word of encouragement to people all over the world who are currently low in spirit and emotion.

Some persons are mourning the death of their relatives who have passed on. Quite a number of persons are now thinking of how will they start afresh in their businesses which have been grounded because of the pandemic. Some people have lost their jobs and do not know how to start again. I have come to tell you that there is always light at the end of the tunnel. There is hope even for a Tree that is cut down to grow again. I have come to bring some word of encouragement and to shore up your spirit with these Inspirational Quotes On Hope! Do Not Give Up!!

Ways To Rekindle Your Hope And Encourage Yourself
These are some few ways you can bring back motivation into your life.
- Positive Self-Talk. When your motivation is low, it is good to reassure yourself. You do not have to wait for people to encourage you because you might be disappointed. Talk to yourself that you can make it. That what is currently happening to you is nothing but a test. After a test comes elevation and promotion.
- Keep Your Sense of Humor and Be Proud Of Your victories. Look inwards and identify your small accomplishments and compliment yourself. Love Yourself and do not compare your victories to the achievement of others.
- Start Again, Redraft Your Goals. After the current challenges, go ahead and start again. Take stock of the present, stock of what is available and what is left. Make achievable plans and start with immediate action.
- Learn The Lesson and Learn Something New. Disappointment can be a learning point. It can teach us how to prepare for the future. It is also a source of information to teach us how things will not work out. It is also a great opportunity for us to learn something new. If you have been doing your business offline before now, you can learn how to be present online. It is an opportunity to improve your strategies.
- Eat Well, Exercise, Listen to music, engage in Your Hobby. Help your body by eating well if you have the food, listen to music, engage yourself in the hobby you love.
- Visualize the future and Believe In Yourself. Despite the present position of things, Try to see the great picture of your future. What seest Thou? You must see clearly the beautiful picture ahead and have strong belief in God to accomplish your dreams.
I hope that these few points above and the quotes have been useful and will go a long way to keeping your hope alive. I will end by reechoing the quote from Robert H. Schuller; “Let Your Hopes, Not Your Hurts, Shape Your Future”.
Please offer support of hope to someone around you at this trying time.
