You are most hopeful if all ten batteries (power cells) are full of charge. Your Total Hopefulness Score comes from adding up ten kinds of questions (the ten "batteries" or power cells that power hope.). There are two kinds of Mastery questions, two kinds of Attachment questions, three kinds of Survival questions, and three kinds of Spiritual questions about God or great unseen powers. After looking at your total score, for a cost of ten US dollars you can choose to see your scores for the four kinds of questions (Mastery, Attachment, Survival, and Spiritual powers). You can also see your scores for each of the ten power cells that make up the four kinds of questions.

You have a strong sense of purpose. There are times in your life that reveal a discernable spiritual presence. This does not mean that you have fully met all of your mastery, attachment, or survival needs. However, you have enough hope, at a spiritual level, to trust that you will get enough done in your lifetime, that you will not be abandoned or forgotten, and that suffering is not forever.(spiritualityDisplayTextId): cc38dbcd-1b22-4ed2-af58-0d69745413c8(totalHopefulnessScale): Total Hopefulness(totalHopefulnessBand): high(totalHopefulnessSum): 175(totalHopefulnessGauge): 88(totalHopefulnessDisplayText): Congratulations!
