This is also generally how to get what you want from other people in your life.

God wanted me to share this with the GLPeople. It is a loophole/cheat but it meets the threshold of respect, and can cross well into the territory of admiration and love, therefore is allowable.

Step #1 Decide what you want - specifically.

Step #2 Tell God/other person what you want, but work it in with something they also want, inter-mesh the details.

Step #3 Feel excited and happy, and attempt to make the God/other person feel that way too.

Step #4 Turn it around and convince God/other person that the whole thing was their idea.

Step #5 Sit back and get what you want while they get what they want too!
