Pray for the best, prepare for the worst, and expect the unexpected.
Expect the best, plan for the worst, and prepare to be surprised.
I'm an optimistic realist. I kind of expect the worst but prepare for the best.
This is the precept by which I have lived: Prepare for the worst; expect the best; and take what comes.
I think we have every reason to hope for the best but expect and prepare for the worst.
There are so many scenarios here. We tried to prepare for the worst summer in 40 years and build assumptions based on that. We're preparing for the worst, but we're hoping for the best. And I've told people the end is in sight.
hope for the best, prepare for the worst
You never know what's going to happen. You don't want to get in there and not be ready. That's the worst thing you can do. You have to prepare yourself as No. 1, to be the best and play against the best.
Prepare for the worst so the best will happen
We're hoping for the best, but we need to prepare for the worst.
Prepare yourself for the worst, and the best will always happen.
They say 'expect the worst.' I say 'Expect the best and even better will happen.'
