Strategies to promote economic growth and


economic development
FIRSTTHINGSFIRST

Every time you come to this Course Study Guide, I’d like you to be as fully
prepared and mindfully present as you can be.
So, let’s start with you closing your eyes and taking at least 3 deep breaths as
you calm and center yourself in your being.

Next, with your eyes closed and focusing on the center of your forehead,
imagine collecting all your scattered energies from all times, places, people and
events, as you continue to breathe deeply and relax.
Next, with your eyes still closed, just be Still and receive God’s Loving Presence
into your being, in a few moments of Silence. Breathe. Relax. Receive.

If you are moved to speak to God from your heart, speak so too.
Breathe.Relax.Receive.

Soak in God first and always before proceeding to do anything else, and you’ll
find yourself clearer and stronger for anything!
