The key point is in the "OR": "we WAIT for things to turn out for the best without knowing how it's going to happen". My intention was to talk about this first meaning. I wasn't talking about the hope as in "I'll sit down and do nothing and hope that it fixes somehow". I'm talking about hoping somewhere along the path you'll figure out how to fix it. And indeed an entrepreneur needs courage, but courage imho requires hope in that you secretly hope that what you are about to do will change things. Maybe both virtues are intrinsically related :) You should post your comment on the blog so more people can discuss it ;)
