Who said it...

• "I used to pray that God would feed the hungry, or do this or that, but now I pray that he will guide me to do whatever I'm supposed to do, what I can do.  I used to pray for answers, but now I'm praying for strength.  I used to believe that prayer changes things, but now I know that prayer changes us and we change things." -Mother Teresa
• "Pray as though everything depended on God. Work as though everything depended on you." -Saint Augustine
• "Everything to do with becoming more like the Savior is difficult...The Lord loves effort, because effort brings rewards that can’t come without it." -Russell M. Nelson

References...

• Pareto Principle
• LDS Bible Dictionary for Prayer: "As soon as we learn the true relationship in which we stand toward God (namely, God is our Father, and we are His children), then at once prayer becomes natural and instinctive on our part (Matt. 7:7–11)...Prayer is the act by which the will of the Father and the will of the child are brought into correspondence with each other. The object of prayer is not to change the will of God but to secure for ourselves and for others blessings that God is already willing to grant but that are made conditional on our asking for them."
