I've been thinking about emotional "power sources" for behavior. Lots of it is powered by fear these days, which has predictable unfortunate effects. Last year I did a lot of stuff powered by hope, which I eventually learned isn't that great either. That shook me, to learn.

spiritual bypass is the concept of hope as a vehicle for content we project vs vehicle for our wholeness. As in, compartmentalizing ourselves & attaching hope to thoughts we've conjured in order to get ahead of the unknown, as opposed to being an anchor in the present

Hope then isn't what's shallow but our tying it to things we wish to do, and not our being. If we shift to being, hope becomes validation, self efficacy, creativity, animates our vision etc. It makes the potential worthwhile exploring and risking.
