"Hope is the Best Strategy." Do you agree with this statement? Why?

[Emeka JohnObi]

Yes I agree. Hope fuels our desire to take action and persevere through challenges. Without it, we might fall into apathy and give up easily.

[Jeevanesh]

This is 100% true. Life is combination of complex emotions. Things can go south very quickly. For which we might not be ready or have no plans. In such an unpredictable scenario, we do need an ultimate strategy. Enter hope.

[Jacy Covers]

No, I don't agree with this statement. The best strategy is to put in the work and let your work speak for you.

[Anu Jikku]

When we set out do something new, the first things that we come across are obstacles. It can feel overwhelming and a lot of people would quit at the outset. But having hope can reignite their will to overcome their obstacles. Hence, hope is always the best strategy in any situation.

[Donaldo cris]

I believe that the word "strategy" is just as crucial as the word "hope." Hope becomes effective when it's integrated into a well-thought-out strategy.

[Puckett Elizabeth Marie]

Sure I've been in a situation that without hope I would missed something great. Hope is what gave me strength and also what gives one something to hold unto in time of challenges.

[Malachi Chukwuebuka Nelson]

Action is needed for hope to become a success some day. So hoping that it will come with action altogether is the best strategy.

[Austin Rhodes]

Yes. I agree with the statement. Hope helps us remain positive in life, no matter the situation and challenges we are facing.

[Giridhar Achary]

Yes, I agree with the statement because hope emphasizes how worry can lead to calm, clarity of mind, and happiness. Hope encourages people to shift their perspectives on challenges and take different approaches.

[Maria Bardis]

While hope is a powerful motivator, it's not enough on its own. Essentially, hope alone lacks direction and can frankly be unrealistic. Simply hoping for something, like winning the lottery without buying a ticket, is just wishful thinking. A strong strategy requires direction and concrete steps. Imagine failing a class - hoping for a passing grade is good, but it's a strategy that includes studying and overcoming obstacles that will get you there. However, hope plays a critical role. It fuels the determination to keep studying even when things get tough and allows us to bounce back from setbacks. So, a good strategy is like a ship. Hope is the wind in the sails, propelling you forward, but you also need the rudder of a well-defined strategy, guided by action and realistic planning, to steer you toward your destination.

[Lisa P Cowling]

I think hope keeps you focused. Therefore, it is the right strategy. It does not just mean waiting for something to happen. It involves working actively towards ensuring that we get what we want while looking on positively.

[Amos Cyprian Kipchumba]

I agree because hope keeps one moving. Without hope majority of the people could be living in frustration.

[Ukaegbu Jane]

Yes I agree....sometimes in life when faced with different obstacles, the hope that things would get better someday could be what will keep us sane. So at that moment hope could be said to be the best strategy cause hope gives strength to wait for better days.

[Julio Sanchez]

While hope alone may not be sufficient as a strategy in every situation, it can be a powerful catalyst for positive change, personal growth, and resilience in many aspects of life. Therefore, in many cases, hope can indeed be considered the best strategy.

[Alida Spies]

Hope, as defined in this book, covers the important elements of a good strategy. It is not just the rational elements of strategy however, it includes emotional elements, which are not commonly found in books about strategy and goal setting. I agree that hope is the best strategy. It addresses debilitating emotions such as depression, negative thoughts and destructive behavior. It acknowledges the value of human interaction and a good support group. Research referenced in the book has proven that hope plays a positive role in many scenarios.
