The Timeless Quotes of Jim Rohn

In my quest to financial freedom, I came across many authors and motivators, but one of the most outstanding and real I have known so far is Jim Rohn. Emmanuel James "Jim Rohn", is one of the best motivational speakers of our time. He is also an author and has written many books such as "The art of exceptional living", 7 Strategies for wealth and happiness, Leading an inspired life, among others. He has been Tony Robbins mentor and has inspired him to be who he is today.

What I particularly liked about this guy is that he is straight forward. Coming from his own experiences, rising from the ranks, he told tales that is sure bull's eye and boy it did hurt. He has become a mentor, not personally, through reading and listening to his seminars, that has been uploaded in you tube. In the many times I heard him, he left many timeless lessons in life I have memorized by heart. These has served as a guiding light in my quest to be financially free. Surely, I may not have reached that goal yet, though the journey has been worth it.

Let me share with you few of the quotes of Jim Rohn I lived by..

" Don't Wish it was easier, wish you were better. Don't wish for less problems, wish for more skills. Don't wish for less challenges, wish for more wisdom." - A personal favorite

"Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job."

"Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced everyday."

"Everyday, stand guard at the door of your mind".

"Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going".

"The more you know, the less you need to say".

"Everyone must choose one of two pains: The pain of discipline or the pain of regret".

" You must either modify your dream, or magnify your skills."

"Let others lead small lives, but not you. Let others agree over small things, but not you. Let others cry over small hurts, but not you. Let others leave their future in someone else's hands, but not you."

"Failure is not a single cataclysmic event, you don't fail overnight. Instead, failure is a few errors in judgement, repeated everyday."

"Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change."

"If you don't like how things are, change it! You are not a tree."

"You don't get paid by the hour. You get paid for the value you bring to the hour."

And the list goes on.. But these are by far some of the best quotes to live by.
