Before starting any task, say “bismillah hirrahman nirrahim” which means “In the name of God, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful.” If you start with this you are seeking help through the name of Allah. Without Him nothing can be accomplished.
Say, "He is the Most Merciful; we have believed in Him, and upon Him we have relied. And you will [come to] know who it is that is in clear error." (Quran 67:29)
قُلْ هُوَ الرَّحْمَٰنُ آمَنَّا بِهِ وَعَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْنَا ۖ فَسَتَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ هُوَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ ﴿٢٩﴾
