Quotes from Jim Rohn's, The Ultimate Jim Rohn Library

“Do these things before the feeling passes and the idea gets dim. You need prompt action! (ex building a personal library) If you don’t, the law of diminishing intent happens. If you don’t transform it into action soon, intent diminishes and it won’t happen.”

“Mr. Shoeff asked to see my list of goals. I said, "I don’t have a list.” “If you don’t have a list of goals, I can guess your bank balance within a few hundred dollars.” Which he did. That got my attention. I said, “You mean if I had a list of goals, that would change my bank balance?” He said, “Drastically. That said, I became a student of how to set goals.

“Neglect starts as an infection, and if you don’t take care of it then it becomes a disease. One neglect leads to another. When it starts, it diminishes our self-worth, our self-confidence, our -self-value.”

“The best gift you can give to others, really, is your ongoing personal development—getting better, getting stronger, becoming wiser.

If you have ever ridden in an airplane, then you might have noticed the oxygen compartment located above every seat. There are explicit instructions that say, “In case of an emergency, secure your own mask before helping others.” Take care of yourself first. If we used that same philosophy throughout our whole life, it would be so valuable.

I think parents should pick up this valuable philosophy. If the parents are OK, the kids have an excellent chance of being OK. If you learn to create happiness, your kids have an excellent chance of being happy.

…Self-development enables you to serve, to be more valuable to those around you—for your child, for your colleague, for your business, for your community.

That’s why I teach development skills. If you keep refining all the parts of your character, yourself, your health so that you become an attractive person, you’ll attract opportunity.”

“I’m often asked the question, “How can I help someone else change, improve, be better?” My answer often comes as a surprise, and here it is: The key to helping others is to help you first. In other words, the best contribution I can make to someone else is my own personal development. If I become 10 times wiser or 10 times stronger, think of what that will do for my adventure as a father… as a business colleague… as a friend.”

Other quotes not mentioned in the episode:

“Don’t major in minor things in your life. Are you spending major time on minor things? If so, you’re going to end up with a below average life.”

“We are all affected by five factors: 1. Environment, 2. Events, 3. Knowledge, 4. Results, and 5. View of the Future, or our dreams. Of all the factors, make sure your dream of the future outweighs all the others. Make sure the greatest pull on you is the pull of the future. Make it well planned. Do you face the future with apprehension or anticipation?”

“I’ll take care of me for you, if you’ll take care of you for me.”

“Walk away from the 97%. Don’t talk like they talk, don’t act like they act, don’t go where they go. …Throw away the blame they cling to.”
