The Passing of a Legend
This quote from Jim Rohn says it all. It epitomizes the legacy he leaves behind. I was blessed to have known him.
“Get around people who have something of value to share with you. Their impact will continue to have a significant effect on your life long after they have departed.” ~ Jim Rohn
MyDailyInsights will feature Jim Rohn quotes for the remainder of December. We have never done that before. It was amazing how I felt once I immursed myself in his quotes. I hope our subscribers get the same feeling and get empowered to start the new year with momentum.
Here are a few of my favorite Jim Rohn quotes:
- The major value in life is not what you get. The major value in life is what you become.
- How long should you try? Until.
- Either you run the day or the day runs you.
- If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.
- Don’t wish it were easier, wish you were better.
- Without a sense of urgency, desire loses its value.
- Commit yourself to something bigger than yourself.
- Success is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well.
- Affirmation without discipline is the beginning of delusion.
- Don’t blow your own horn, or you might just miss the music.
- Learn to say NO to the good, so you can say YES to the great.
- Failure is simply a few errors in judgment, repeated every day.
- Don’t just read the easy stuff. You may be entertained by it, but you will never grow from it.
- Giving is better than receiving because giving starts the receiving process.
- Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day.
- If you are not willing to risk the unusual, you will have to settle for the ordinary.
- You don’t get paid for the hour. You get paid for the value you bring to the hour.
- Give so much to the improvement of yourself, that you don’t have time to criticize others.
- Effective communication is 20% what you know and 80% how you feel about what you know.
- You cannot change your destination overnight, but you can change your direction overnight.
