For your readers who pop by, contrast the movie Shawshank Redemption with Polyanna and then add in The Legend of Bagger Vance. All of them are about hope but in context of superior knowledge and staying power, optimism and cheerfulness, and then social support and trust. I'm leaving now before you think I am staying forever!

Sometimes it is only our continuous and stubborn belief in the positive outcome of something that will bring about this result. Well put!

I've been reading The Black Swan and it says just about the same thing about hope.

I'm so glad to see so many "hope powered" people :) Funny that out of 4 comments, 3 of them are from women ;) Maybe men are ashamed to talk about hope? @blogbard cool site! A friend of mine is working on something similar :) Again, thank you all for the comments! Wow, thank you all for the cool comments! I’m so glad to see so many “hope powered” people :)

Loved listening to it. Reminded me of the famous quote by Emily Dickenson. "Hope" is the thing with feathers-- That perches in the soul-- And sings the tune without the words-- And never stops--at all http://blogbard.com/blodio/blogmainpage?type=blogbard&playurl=http%3A%2F%2Falwaysnewmistakes.wordpress.com%2Ffeed%2F Great post.

It take guts to take risk and strength of conviction not knowing where you will end up. In the past 30 years we've had a lot of entrepreneurs who've taken the plunge without being a part of Stanford and the Sand Hill Road constituency - they are the true hero's. They could not depend on the in-crowd of angles, VCs, and mentors. While I think great people have come out of Stanford forming great companies, I feel they had support knowing that if they failed it would be ok - ego aside. It's the other frontrunners who I cherish. Your o so right! It take guts to take risk and strength of conviction not knowing where you will end up.
