I get what you are saying, as a lack of hope can affect so much of our lives. I have recently looked at hope from the point of view of ensuing my goals are self concordant (i.e. because I want to do them not because I fell I have to do them). This reframing of my goals made a huge difference to my sense of hope. Have you also thought of doing a ‘Best Self’ diary (see Lyubormisrsky’s book ‘The How of Hope’) where you visualise yourself in the future that you want for yourself? This is quite effective too. Good luck with your studies!
