Just before the Normandy Invasion in 1944, Eisenhower met with a group of officers who would be going into battle. He stretched out a piece of string on a table and pulled it a few inches with his finger. ‘An army is like this piece of string.’ He said. ‘If you try to push it from behind, it just tangles and doubles back on itself. Soldiers have to be led from the front, not pushed from behind.’
Jim Rohn

Jim Rohn

Making the most of your life is unusual. That’s why you need to develop some unusual habits to earn outstanding rewards.
Jim Rohn

Each person’s personal philosophy is like the set of a sail. If you want to trim a better sail, you don’t need a better economy. You know you can’t change the seasons; you’ve got to take them as they come. What can you change to make your life work better? You must start with your philosophy. Once I got rid of all my old excuses and started examining the real problem – my personal philosophy – my life exploded into change. My bank account changed immediately. My income changed immediately. My whole life instantly took on a new look. The early results from making these philosophical changes felt so good that I never stopped the process from that day forward.
Jim Rohn



There is only one way to make time work for you, not against you: patience.

In any situation you can think of, impatience is a source of weakness and fear, while patience represents substance and strength.

Resolve means promising yourself you’ll never give up.
Jim Rohn

Promise yourself you’ll read the books until your skills change; you’ll go to seminars until you get a handle on what they’re teaching; you’ll practice until you develop the skills. Never give up until you’ve gotten what you want. Don’t miss the chance to grow. Resolve that you’ll pay the price until you learn, change, grow, and become what you want to be. You’ll discover some of life’s best treasures when you pay that price.
Jim Rohn

Don’t wish it were easier, wish you were better. Don’t wish for fewer problems, wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenges, wish for more wisdom.
