“The Entrepreneur's Prayer”

Angels Mine,

I feel myself moving very slow, dragging my feet.

I’m nervous that success will overwhelm me and my children.

Would you please come wrap your wings around us? Guide us, protect us, bless us, and love us. Make me feel safe so that I will speed up the pace.

I’m letting fear rob me of my motivation. What if I really don’t know what I’m doing? What if I make a fool of myself? What if I never make a dime? What if I fail?

Please make your presence known. I don’t want to guess or play at metaphors. Speak to me openly and with a clarity that cannot be denied.

When I’m lost, don’t carry me, just point the way.

When I have to make important decisions, speak up and tell me your opinion.

When I’m doing the right thing, smile on me.

Hold me to my highest good.

Show me signs that I’m quite capable of accomplishing this task within the amount of time given. I don’t ask for you to make it easy for me or to do it all for me. Rather, just shine a light on my own cleverness and adventuresome spirit.

Be my cheerleader, not my enabler.

Don’t let me play small.

Don’t save me, just show me the vision again when I am ready to give up and quit.

Dangle that carrot in front of me, but don’t just hand it to me.

Help to remind me when I’m juggling too many things, that it is my bliss to do this work. Remind me of all the reasons why I love it so much.

Don’t ever let me take it for granted nor forget what lead me to accept this challenge.
I am me and this is what I do.

Thank you.
