Hopelessness is as exactly as it sounds. You just have very little reason to believe in anything anymore because you lack hope and encouragement. Hopelessness can lead to low self-esteem and depression. A lack of hope means you are unable to do anything with confidence in achieving a positive outcome. It is tough to do anything or think in any manner because the inevitable happens (at least, what you consider inevitable)- impending failure and disappointment.
When you are hopeless, there is almost no point in trying something because you are bound to fail. This is the kind of feeling that dooms most individuals even before would-be failure happens. You learn to give yourself hope in anything and everything you do. When you do not have this hope, all you are doing is wasting your time and energy trying to make the impossible possible. Hopelessness is wanting a plant to become a huge tree, but unable to because one doesn't think it will ever be at its best. Hopelessness is teaching your child how to be a better person and learn concepts in school, but unable to because you feel that child will bring home bad grades or get into trouble. Being hopeless is basically reverse encouragement. Where we try to give hope and endorsement that things will provide a positive outcome, it ultimately leads to a totally lost cause as inevitable failure happens.
Having hopelessness take over your mind is a feeling of self-doubt and weakness. You can't smile or feel happy about anything when you feel nothing ever goes right for you. It is mind-numbing to imagine you can never become the successful individual you know you can be. It is okay not to think you are going to fail. That is natural. However, you try to defy any feelings that you will fail by doing your best to succeed at whatever you think you are going to fail at. Giving yourself hope and believing in hope helps you feel better and become more confident. Certain external factors also contribute to giving yourself hope. Even things outside of your control can be factors in hope.
The feeling of hopelessness can lead to feeling like nothing good ever happens. Most of the time, nothing good ever happens because one doesn't believe anything good can ever happen. You have to believe in yourself and your abilities. You can always teach yourself to do a task better, or gain some support from other people. You may even need other people to help encourage you if you lack hope. The moment you give up trying to work for a positive outcome and a positive future, that is where hopelessness hits you the hardest. Do whatever it takes to try to get yourself motivated and confident. You are not a weak person just because you require assistance from others. I have said this for the longest since first starting "John's Life Space."
If you find yourself lacking hope, learn to become confident and able. Even if you are not overly qualified to accomplish a task, at least give yourself a chance that you CAN pull through in the toughest of times. If you don't give yourself that chance, congratulations- you let failure win.
