The Entrepreneurs Prayer

I pray for the wisdom to expect abundance in my life, that itsurrounds me and is available for the taking and to be shamelessand unapologetic upon its receipt, for I deserve abundance. I pray for a cheerful countenance, be it clear or cloudy skiesand that I may radiate and infect others with my positiveattitude. I pray for the trust of others that they may recognize mysincerity and true intentions so that we may move forwardtogether. I pray for the strength to fend off adversity and use my desireand determination as both weapon and shield. I pray for the courage to carry forth my convictions during thebattle of business and to resist temptation to a quicker monetaryresult when such temptation compromises these things for which Istand. I pray that I may be used as a lightning rod to collect theamazing ideas already present in the universe and when blessedwith such inspiration, that I may be able to apply my talents andabilities to turn the power of thought into measurableadvancement of my goals. I pray to retain my childhood wonder so that I can recognize andrevel in the small miracles of each day that others may miss. I pray for an infinite supply of self-confidence for it alonefortifies faith, strengthens my resolve and conquers the largestenemy I will ever face - fear. I pray for a compassionate spirit and the patience to offer thosewho seek my advice and my help, my full and undivided attention. I pray for good health and a feeling of well being, and thecontinued desire to improve those areas of my physical life I maybe neglecting in the name of my spiritual and entrepreneurialadvancement. I pray that today is a day of excellence and at its conclusion Ican acknowledge and be grateful for the forward motion I havemade and the growth I have experienced. I pray most of all for the understanding and support of thoseclosest to my heart, my family, that they will equate what mayseem like endless hours of apparent pre-occupation with affairsof business to what is at the very core of my being, that whichdrives me, for once I achieve what I have set out in its fullest,I will become that more complete being I strive to be.
