    The Entrepreneur's Prayer
    As I awaken with the gift of yet another day and prepare for the tasks at hand, I offer up this most ardent prayer:I pray for continued clarity of purpose so that I may hold my vision steady and keep my focus on the needs and success of others, which in turn shall bring me my success.I pray for the wisdom to expect abundance in my life, that it surrounds me and is available for the taking and to be shameless and unapologetic upon its receipt, for I deserve abundance.I pray for
    Merriam-Webster’s Online Dictionary defines success as, “the degree or measure of succeeding; favorable or desired outcome; the attainment of wealth, favor, or eminence.
