WHY YOU SHOULD NEVER HOPE FOR THE BEST BUT PLAN FOR THE WORST!!!

‘Hope for the best but plan for the worst’

Everyday somebody somewhere states this and because it is repeated by many individuals it has become a statement that people are proud to say and they even believe it! Let’s analysis this popular statement it will only take a minute or 2.

Hoping for the best but planning for the worst is a COWARDS way of thinking! ............ Yes I hear some disagreements but please keep reading.

Hope is an amazing emotion and feeling but from what I know, Hope alone will never move mountains. HOPE + PLANNING will move something even if it isn’t a mountain! If you add persistence and a few others to that equation a mountain will have to move!

NEVER EVER plan for the worst!!!! Why??? Becausewhen you PLAN for something it means you are giving it attention and focus. What does a PLAN actually mean? According to my dictionary a PLAN is an intention, a detailed intended action to achieve. A series of steps to be carried out or goals to be accomplished.

Just think about a bride and groom planning their wedding. They spend so much money, time and effort on every single smallest detail that may occur on their special day. This takes a lot of effort. That is why I said when you plan for something it means you are giving it attention and focus. Having studied the laws of nature it is evident that people usually get more of what they focus on. So if you focus on the worst you will only get the worst! HOPE FOR THE BEST AND PLAN FOR THE BEST!!



If anything in that ‘worst’ bracket appears than you should have the desire to turn it into an opportunity! Because people who hope for the best but plan for the worst live with and act upon FEAR……….......FEAR is one of the biggest enemies you will ever have! Because fear has the power to cause so many other emotions which only lead to negative situations.I believe that sometimes people Fear because of self-doubt and low self-esteem.

If this note speaks to you in anyway than 2011 is the year of change because you will never achieve your goals or live the life of your dreams when you act upon fear! Low self esteem is an emotion that should be treated as urgent as a person who has just been stabbed! Because it will only eat you away!


Next time before you start feeding your mind with ‘popular statements’ please analysis what the statement is actually doing to you.

Best wishes for the rest of the year! Pleaseeeeeeeeee hope and plan for the best! Lots of love Gracia xxx
