How I can improve my prayers

I sang "Prayer Is the Soul's Sincere Desire" for my scriptures study this morning. That hymn is so good, all seven verses. The references it gave led to 3 Nephi 13:5-18, which include the Lord's Prayer. From it I learn this:

"Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." 

This makes me feel that I need to have more sacred reverence and respect for God and His will when I pray. I also need to realize that He knows of what I need before I ask Him, which means I should ask Him more fervently what I should pray about and for. Pray to Him as though He really is all-knowing and omniscient and the Potter and I just the clay. 

"Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors." What this means is that once we have forgiven others, we can then ask for forgiveness for ourselves. So maybe the first step in this part of prayer is to work on figuring out who we need to forgive and doing it. 

Then we ask for help with things we are tempted with. And we do this by recognizing that He has all power and will receive all glory from everything good.
