Jim Rohn Quotes

Jim Rim Quotes

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Jim Rohn was born in Yakima, Washington State, in 1930.  His parents then moved to a farm in Idaho, which is where the young Jim grew up. His first job was with the prestigious department store Sears, where he worked as a human resources manager.  In 1955 he left Sears to join a direct selling business owned by John Earl Shoaff.  Shoaff then became a mentor to the young Rohn.

In 1957, Rohn switched to another Shoaff company rising to be a vice-president.  He became one of the most successful direct selling agents in the company.  His determination to make his fortune came because Shoaff set him a challenge.  This challenge was simple – become a millionaire.  Shoaff died at 49 five years after first meeting Rohn.  One year later, Rohn achieved millionaire status.

Rohn passionately believed that anyone could achieve success.  He used his story as the basis of the philosophy that he developed and promoted through the remainder of his life.  This philosophy taught that people need to control how they think.  He suggested that no-one would succeed without developing positive thinking as a skill to be used in every situation.

He strongly recommended that anyone aspiring to great things should study the lives of successful people and try to do as they did.  He also said that failures must also be studied, as there is much to learn from failure.

Rohn set great store in reading.  In particular, reading the works of the most inspiring successful people.  They have taken time to put their experiences and the lessons they have learned into print.  Go to them and learn.

Rohn stressed the need to keep a journal.  Record daily everything that has happened.  The very act of writing down an account of the day’s events will make you think about them.  Writing allows you to consider what has happened and comment candidly about those events.  Refer to your journal frequently when making decisions.

Observation is an important skill to develop, according to Rohn.  Watch. Listen and pay attention to what is happening around you.  This could lead to your spotting opportunities or avoiding mistakes.

In order to make wise decisions, it is necessary to be mentally disciplined.  Rohn suggests that successful people have greater mental discipline and that this leads to them making better decisions.  Single-mindedness is needed to achieve success.

Rohn also cautions against neglect.  Don’t neglect opportunities.  More importantly, don’t neglect yourself, as you are the most valuable tool that you have.

Rohn died in 2009, but his influence has far outlived him.  Today many people continue to benefit from the wisdom to be found in his books and other inspirational materials.  His life story is inspirational.  He showed steadfast determination to succeed.  He tackled problems with flair and intelligence, and never stopped believing in himself.
