The Hope Thingy S1E39 This episode is all about hope and what hope means. We’re over 50 but we’re not over-the-hill. There is still plenty of ambition in us and plenty of hope. There's still lots that we want to see in do and hope for. So, we have got to make sure that these dreams become a reality. That's what we're planning for. So, hope allows us to move towards planning for something and then taking certain actions to make sure that that planning becomes a reality. We must go through that kind of cycle to make sure that we achieve what we hope for. The same with a degree. If you want to go and study. You've got to hope that you will get the degree and you work towards it, and by a certain period of time you've achieved it. Your next hope will be to go on to do something else. Keep having these signposts or objectives that you can achieve to give you a sense of purpose through your life. It not just about being on a rotating circle, that Garvin talked about, like a train going round and round and round, and may have done the same cycle 5000 times, but it's never actually achieved anything. You have got to make sure that what you are doing on that journey achieves something and you are not just on a roundabout all the time.
