Unhappy People beg when praying

Most people have prayers like this:

Please let me have xxx. or I really want my xxx to get better. Please help me God/Universe/Whatever you prefer to call it.

Then they say their prayers and do nothing to make the prayers manifest. It's like people doing IM and waiting for stuff to fall out of the sky. If I were sick, I would craft my intentions as:

I'm feeling better from this surgery and I plan to do xxx as soon as I leave the hospital. I'm healthier than I was when I arrived. I'm enjoying my life more and taking less for granted. I'm grateful for all that I have and the people in my life, etc...

This why, in my mind I'm seeing myself as already healed. I don't see myself feeling better in the future, but as feeling better right now. Of course I might still have pain, but I could think about it this way:

The pain that I'm expericing is leading to my healing. I must go through this pain in order for my body to heal. It's part of my renewal process. All pain leads to improved strenghth and better health.

That's my 2 cents
