HOPE: STRONG CORD

 

“BE EXCELLENT – Live a life that is remarkably good in such a way that it inspires others. The world is looking for people to follow, let that be you.

 

 

In the Greek, the word Hope literally means a cord, or rope. A rope is comprised of small independent fibers that are called tensile. The process by which you strengthen your tensile of Hope occurs when you constantly exercise your Hope on what you desire and you inspire Hope in others. The strength of the rope has a direct correlation to the materials that make up the tensile.

 

The structure of Hope is similar to the complex structure of a rope. Hope’s tensile is comprised of the interweaving of the following:

Material realities- those things which influence one’s ability to survive. This includes things such as food, shelter, and clothing.

The inner self (Soul)-that which is comprised of feelings, thoughts, human will, emotions, and intellect.

Intended behaviors - the actions performed and mannerisms displayed, intentionally, by an individual.

Unintended behaviors - the actions and mannerism that are displayed as a result of external compulsion or stimuli.

Communal Interactions- the intimate relationships shared with family, love ones, friends, and networking groups.
