“Hope” is an interesting word. When we use the word “hope”, we generally use it in a positive context. The fact is, it’s a very passive word. When we use it, we are saying, I want something to happen, but I have no control over the outcome. When given the opportunity to use the word “hope”, say “want” instead, or “will make.” Take control of the future by focusing on making things happen, instead of just hoping for them.
