Having one's prayers answered is a lot easier than most people think. When you open yourself to God in prayer, you will find it is similar to turning on a radio. The only difference is that it is two-way. You have to tune into a frequency on which you can hear God as well as speak to Him. But before you can broadcast to God, you must make of yourself a well-functioning receiver so that you can hear His message. How to Get Your Prayers Answered will teach you how to address God so that he will listen and how to fine-tune your soul so that you will be able to recognize His answer.
A better title for this would be "How to Enhance Your Magical Thinking Skills" All your prayers will come true. If one doesn't come true, you should be surprised. Also, if it doesn't come true, you weren't sincere enough. And if it doesn't come true, you weren't really praying for the right thing. And while you're at it, you should be working to make whatever it is come to fruition, as though the prayers didn't matter, but remember, you should pray expecting to answered. (Lather, rinse, repeat, I guess.)
While I can't disagree with the sentiment that if you want something to happen in your life, you should work for it, the rest is just utter nonsense.
