Simplified Meaning:
Human minds often transition from one hope to another instead of simply moving from one enjoyable moment to the next. Imagine you're job hunting. You might hope for a good interview when you first apply. This hope keeps you motivated. After the interview, you start hoping to get the job. Each hope drives you forward and keeps you striving. It’s not just the joy of getting a new job, but the ongoing hopes at each step that keep you going. Applying this to your life means understanding that hopes push you forward more than immediate pleasures. You set goals, hope to achieve them, and this helps you grow and continue despite challenges.
