For all of the abundance of riches that I am convinced will be poured unto my life, my thoughts and prayers are always rather simple. Below, I share them with you.

My prayers have always been for guidance, strength and protection. My asking for guidance is rooted in my desire to be strengthened with vision and clarity; guidance in making the right decisions and equally sight to see the path of life revealed before me.

Only through a strong body and mind can you fulfill life’s mission which has been set for you. Guidance without strength is akin to stored energy without action. My prayers of strength are about physical strength but allow mental strength. A sense of fortitude that allows me to withstand life’s challenges.

Throughout life, for reasons within, but most of the time outside your control, bad things happen to and around you. While my belief is that all experiences occur to better prepare you for the future, sometimes life’s challenges can come at you without warning. For these unforeseen challenges and sometimes bad will of persons, I pray for protection. This prayer affords me the comfort in knowing that no matter where I travel, my being will be protected.

Simply, I pray for guidance, strength and protection. My prayers guide me as I innately focus on positively influencing people and building successful nations. What’s your prayer?

There are some people in life who you find possess something “special”; something different. You often refer to them as being extraordinary or gifted. Many times it is even hard to put into words what you see in them but you know it’s something great, a certain “je ne sais quoi“.

Here is the strange reality about most of these persons – they most often do not realize this (greatness) within themselves. It’s the vision of one person or the intuition of another which recognizes the greatness in these beings. It’s the relationship where a coach takes personal interest in the growth of a player after seeing something “special” in him. It is also the words of the mentor whispered into the ears of the mentee, “you are great.” Whatever the relationship, please note that while we are placed on this earth to grow ourselves into greatness, we are primarily here to recognize and nurture the greatness in others. Universal law understands that facilitating greatness in others reaps greater rewards for you. Give and you shall grow.

Let’s positively influence people and build successful nations.
