Default Sorry for wanting help again! Please advise, thx teachers!

I hope my future life will turn out as it is envisaged. Hence, I will work hard for a bright future ahead.

Does the sentence above make itself clear? Please help correct it if there's any mistakes...Thanks again, teachers!

I think you should simplify that. Perhaps:
  • I hope things will turn out the way I hope.
Perhaps you could add:
  • I will work hard and hope for a bright future.

What do you think?

You're welcome. :D

More possibilities:
  • I hope everything goes according to plan.
    I hope everything goes the way I planned it.
    I hope I achieve my goals.
    I am hopeful that I will achieve my goals.

Also:
  • I am going to study and work hard so I can achieve my goals.

I wouldn't use envisage. It isn't used much, and I wouldn't recommend using it in ordinary conversation.
