Jim Rohn' Philosophy

Jim Rohn’s Philosophy

The following are notes from a recent article in Success magazine about Jim Rohn:
1. Rohn emphasized the importance of taking responsibility for personal growth.
2. He taught people why and how to reach for bigger, better, more vital life.
3. Stressed the importance of personal development.
4. Change your philosophy, change your life.
5. Work harder on yourself than you do on your job; your income is directly related to our philosophy, not the economy; and for things to change you must change.
6. Get the right philosophy and discipline to follow through with action.
7. The ultimate expression of life is not a paycheck.
8. We must constantly ask, “What, for me, would be a good life?” A list including spirituality, economics. Health, relationships and recreation.
9. The game of life is not at rest. We must rest, but only long enough to gather strength to get back to productivity.
10. Our culture—our language, music, ceremonies, traditions, dress.
11. Spirituality—study, practice and teach.
12. Don’t miss anything—don’t miss the game, the performance, the movie, the show, the dance.
13. Live a vital life.
14. Invest in your family and your inner circle.
15. There is no greater value than love.
16. There are no new fundamentals.
17. Truth is not new, it’s old.
18. Success is simple and is the result of sticking to the basic, but mostly missed, fundamentals.
19. Two of his best known works—“Challenge to Succeed”, “The Art of Exceptional Living”
