Jim Rohn (September 17, 2024 - December 5, 2024) is often seen as the founding father of the modern personal development movement. Tony Robbins mentored under him in the late 70′s and many others, like Jack Canfield (the Chicken Soup for the Soul series) and Brian Tracy, credit his influence to their success. I have read many of Jim Rohn’s books, watched his videos and love reading his quotes. He is a source of inspiration that has given me a boost at times when i really needed one, and i’m thankful for it. Though there are many, here are a few of my favorites.
According to Mr. Rohn, the Five Components of Success Are:
- Philosophy - how you think
- Attitude - how you feel
- Action - what you do
- Results - measure often to see if you are making progress
- Lifestyle - the kind of life you can make for yourself out of the first four pieces
Jim Rohn was famous for his quotes, a few of my favorites are:
“Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune”
“Failure is simply a few errors in judgment, repeated every day”
“Don’t wish it were easier, wish you were better”
“If you are not willing to risk the unusual, you will have to settle for the ordinary”
Whenever I need a kick in the butt to get me going, I like to watch this short video
