The hope of new growth new world
Reflecting on my experience with emotional growth
My name is Laura Gallant. I am a research associate at the HOPE National Resource Center, and I write many of our blog posts on the HOPE framework, the Four Building Blocks of HOPE, positive childhood experiences (PCEs), and more. When I first learned about the Four Building Blocks of HOPE, I felt a real connection to the Building Block of emotional growth. It made me think about my adolescence and who I am now as an adult. What sticks out to me is my experience of failures. Growing up, I had to gain a deep well of self-love and self-compassion to help me through these difficult experiences, including situations that often felt out of my control.
Finding new measures of success beyond winning a game
For example, I always think about my time playing sports in high school. I played soccer, swimming, and tennis. In each sport, we would lose – very badly.

The Limits to Growth
Published 1972 – The message of this book still holds today: The earth’s interlocking resources – the global system of nature in which we all live – probably cannot support present rates of economic and population growth much beyond the year 2100, if that long, even with advanced technology. In the summer of 1970, an international team of researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) began a study of the implications of continued worldwide growth. They examined the five basic factors that determine and, in their interactions, ultimately limit growth on this planet-population increase, agricultural production, nonrenewable resource depletion, industrial output, and pollution generation. The MIT team fed data on these five factors into a global computer model and then tested the behaviour of the model under several sets of assumptions to determine alternative patterns for humankind’s future. The Limits to Growth is the nontechnical report of their findings. The book contains a message of hope as well. The authors state that: “The challenge of overshoot from decision delay is real, but easily solvable if human society decided to act,” me
