From Hope Quotient by Ray Johnston
- All forward progress (anything great that happens in your life or future) comes from fresh vision!
- All fresh vision comes from hope (discouraged people don’t dream)
- Hope thrives when you focus on these 7 essential life practices, or hope factors.
Seven essential life practices:
- Recharge your batteries. Nobody does well running on empty.
- Raise your expectations. You don’t get what you deserve, you get what you expect.
- Refocus on the future. It’s time to throw away your rear view mirror. Nobody goes forward well when they are looking back.
- Play to your strengths. Be yourself, everyone else is taken!
- Refuse to go it alone. Never underestimate the power of support. Even the Lone Ranger had Tonto.
- Replace burnout with balance. Burning the candle at both ends is not as bright as you think.
- Play great defense. Avoid hope killers!
