Jim Rohn - Success Strategies


Hello, I hope you are having a wonderful day so far!  This post is going to cover some of the topics identified in the audio recording entitled Success Strategies by Jim Rohn.  To begin, I reccomend you perform this small imagination and recording task on paper or by typing it into a document.  Plan to store this document in a safe and easy to find location. It should take about 10 minutes and will hopefully save a couple of the years of your lifetime of being without this knowledge.  Dedicate more time if you can, it will be worth it.

In the next 1-10 years,

  • What do you want to own? 
  • What do you want to do? 
  • What do you want to see? 
  • What do you want to be? 
  • Where do you want to go? 
  • What would you like to share? 


After answering these questions briefly, we need to make sure you've balanced your goals and also have varied them for the years to come.

years length (3) (5) (10) on each years or months

finish one goal, start another, don't linger on success for long best way to start another meal is to get hungry

Goals should include - Economic(income), materials, personal development, (fitness), (build better relationships), (leader, student, communicator, learn other languages), family, social, lifestyle then after setting goals up, pick four most important of each year tier

I have designated afterwards take this new condensed goal sheet and vividly and specifically explain what needs to be done in order to achieve that goal(also describe why to take yourself in or talk yourself out of it) what you want is powerful but why is much more important reflect, refine, revise (4 1 year, 3 year, 5 year, and 10 year that believe and inspire me) confidence building goals within 1 year build conf to accomplish long range goals (model the first list) when you check off something major, celebrate, make winning joyful,

MAKE LOSING PAINFUL PUT IT ON YOURSELF. don't join an easy crowd, join where expectations are high Even better than having is being What person will I have to become to get all I want? skills, things to learn, behaviors, habits Am I willing to become what it takes to get what I want? Income does not far exceed personal development.

 Ability will grow to match your strong dreams. Either i have to change my wants or i have to change myself Skill of asking! Maybe find audiobooks?

 Ask and you will receive have to be a good planner ha to be a good goal setter AND a good asker failing to ask is the problem
 Ask with intelligence, be specific, how, when, why, what Well defined goals are like magnets what do i want and what for give yourself purpose Ask with faith as a child does, adults are too skeptical at times.

Believe and have faith in yourself and your goals Get excited like a child, childlike enthusiasm kids can ask a thousand questions curiosity and questions to learn,

curiosity is a virtue hate to go to bed at night, cant wait to go up in the morning time essentials come from objectives being well defined don't let one day (year) blend into the next Really critical skill - separate major activities from minor activities mental scale, carefully weigh before you spend time or money Is this a major or a minor? Don't spend major time on minor things

Don’t spend major money on minor things major time is the time spent in the presence of the prospect minor time is the time spent on the way to the prospect Don’t go across town until you've gone across the street how much time am i spending in the presence of … on the way too?

Don’t mistake movement for achievement
Don’t get faked out by being busy-
Doing what?
 Put value in your time, take your challenges seriously careful investment for maximum results the importance of concentration - CONCENTRATE (say it)

 Constant Review -

see if you’re on track with your goals careful goal setting resolves time management issues makes us analyze our time to make our dreams come true You won't get everything you want. It is not that type of planet. But work the system and more often than not you may get what you want.

 If you wish to be happy, study happiness If you wish to be wealthy, study wealth If you search, you will find You must go TO the seminars, and go TO the trainings, you MUST ENGAGE in conversations your diligent search will find you ides when you find a good idea, CAPTURE it. Don't trust your memory.

 A journal is a good gathering place. (but remember the YBR log is not really a journal, its a thinking thought to hp me improve the way i think and address the pmo habit) Photographs are a good way Get from your days, be aware, learn from your previous days, the record into your mind and learn from, at the end of the day go over your day what worked and what didn’t the colors sights sound experiences of the day experiences can become an incredible source of value if you take time to reflect not what happens but rather what you do about what happens this reflection, studying, can glem value information from an event ability will grow to meet your strong dreams

You have to be a good asker you don't have to work on receiving, failing to ask is the problem gather all experiences and invest them into the next gather experience from yesterdays and future becomes bright and leanful find out how things work

never let be said that you don't find out make sure you find out all you can do you've got to be a good reader, a good listener miss a meal but don’t miss meditation, or mental stimulation with words good diet of words everyday don't just read or listen to the easy stuff standard education will get you standard results strive to make the best library for the improvement of yourself but also interaction with others How much does it cost? How much is it worth? Study nutrition. Vitality plays an important part in success and happiness. 

Read health books. work on both mind and body so that health can be good for mind what does your library say about you the book you don’t read cannot help you learn from others by listening ask successful people questions and listen (take notes) youve got to be better than a good worker, you've got to be a good listener watch what successful people do, success leaves clues invest the money, set up an education fund best money spent cultivating genius and spirit. the money small price for unlimited potential, spend the time as well though.

 time is a major resource but it takes time, precious time you can get more money buy you can get more time but life rewards high investment with high return spend money, time,.and effort deliberately to turn wishes into wealth what you become is far better than what you are getting what you become directly influences what you get you can have more because you can become more but you must change you An ant will never quit. It tries until it dies. Ants prepare for winter all summer. its hard to keep what you haven’t attracted by your own personal development there is no lack of opportunity but you can fail with a lack of information discernment - the ability to judge well.

 The major key to your better future is YOU There isn’t anymore time, where would you find it? cant get more time but you can become more valuable, we get paid for value, bringing value to the marketplace is how you get paid you don't get paid for the time you put in, you get [aid for the value of product you create Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job Performance comes from inside, not outside Success is something you develop (not pursue) Become an above average person to have an above average income. for things change for you, you have to change. Its going to be about like its always been

 Develop a new attitude about everything. Get rid of that old stinky attitude. before you make a call, create an agenda to attract valuable people, you must be valuable not the amount that counts, uniqueness, love, attitude how about your health goals how about your investment goals travels investments gifts and sharing who to meet who to become what skills to develop what to write creatively would you like to influence people education to your counterparts splendid library new friends experiences that are awesome something you like to prove or mark you'd like to make start reading bible Develop list of reasons I want and need to be successful, align them to goals maybe

Hello, I'm glad you've visited!



The purpose of this blog is to be a resource of notes, reading suggestions, and empowering media to support a happy and financially independent lifestyle.  I intend to provide quotes and notes of the books I have read and applied to my life.  It is my hope that my friends and family may benefit from this information by getting a concise understanding and reference point to apply the principles and do additional reading/research to utilize the knowledge and grow in their lifestyle.

This is OUR free tool, please feel free to browse and comment as you feel necessary.  I will be an active respondent.

Leaders are Readers and Wealth Creation with Kevin Trudeaux

Notes


Wealthy people are students and excellent listeners, broke people think they know everything - they are not teachable


Consider your teachability index - How teachable are you?  


  • on a scale of 1-10 what is your willingness to learn information about wealth creation?
  • on a scale of 1-10 what is your willingness to accept change?

If you want thing to change, you have to change


0 * 10 = 0 (you have to have to high teachability index)  


Successful people (especially concerning wealth) have a high teachability index.


Also consider the training balance scale - on one side lies motivation or dreams (why you do things) and on the other side lies the technique, action, and skill (the actual doing, the physical)


One side contains dreams, vision, goals, attitude, and enthusiasm (functions mostly in your head by what you think and feel)


The other side concerns what you actually do and this is the work and the physical


Some people will overdose on one side, focusing on techniques, but avoiding the work that must be done.  90% is the why, but 10% is the work  and it is very crucial.


Successful people say they're gonna do it, they don't make any excuses or let any circumstances phase them.  Successful people don't know how at first but they don't care because they have an enduring belief that “if i start, it will all work out”.


The how will come with discipline, diligence, persistence, continuous learning, being teachable, and respecting the rights of others.


The thought process is usually more important than the how because it is the underlying foundation.


There are four phases in learning - unconscious incompetence, conscious incompetence, conscious competence, unconscious competence


As successful beings, we make a conscious effort to apply these principles, if I choose not to apply these principles, I cannot obtain the results I desire.


To increase the likelihood of success, I will need to have a definitive and a specific purpose that is clearly defined (goal, dream) -

Successful people are goal oriented (definitive aim is key)


diversification comes later (attention is not spread amongst projects) - comment?  narrow in scope so you can put all focus to achieve that goal


The Law of Success in 16 Lessons - Napoleon Hill


It is critical to outline a definitive purpose (clearly defined dream) and have a burning desire for its achievement (an obsession) with limitless focus.  Apply it with your mind


The Strangest Secret - Earl Nightingale


You become what you think about.
You become what your primary dominant thoughts are, law of attraction


These traits exist among all humans, its how you respond (channel these thoughts and emotions towards a greater purpose)
  • good feelings and bad feelings
  • good thoughts and bad thoughts

The better you feel, the more focused you are.


Emotional guidance system to recharge your thoughts - wait a minute i'm not thinking properly, focus on your objective, lower that objective to something you
can get aligned with to feel good about yourself


Leaders are always readers


5 years from now - people you meet and books you read will form you

reread your books
listen to tapes, listen to information on cds or some time of audio about success motivation attitude and regularity is very important it needs to be constant development


replace the way you have been thinking with something else - daily


i train my mind and train it everyday


successful people are always attending seminars, experiential event with like minded people - the experiences you have that change you
these evolve thought and action


(see if you can find webinars or live courses - my solution)


save 10%
the richest man in the world


successful people save
to achieve wealth you must live below your means


pay yourself first
then pay a minimum of 10% to savings


get out of debt - reduce your debt load, reduce interest load, reduce payments (really focus, is usually the first obstacle)


successful people have good priority management because you cannot manage time.


the priority manager - manage priorities and get complete control of your time, very vital to achieving wealth creation


associate with winners - successful people associate with likeminded people


thought process and energy rubs off - must be in the presence of the successful people


WORK - you can work hard, you can work smart


the work is really the thought process, not as much the physical doing


to them they never call it work, do what you love, every successful does not work they put their hours into something useful


understand work - put in the time, must make sure you are lined up, doing something you love to create spectatular results


develop a pleasing personality (be delightful, go back in the time to see where they started) and likeable


how to win friends and influence people and related books


successful people are good communicators must develop skills to communicate thoughts and ideas, persuasive, they negotiate well, and they are able to sell ideas (not to just be a salesman)


improve your credit score - stop using other people's money


reduce taxes - to increase cashflow to create wealth


reduce the amount of insurance premiums you pay


use corporations to reduce taxes, get access to more credit, protect your assets - must do this to create wealth, successful people fo this


OMP - other people's money, if you want to be successful you need other peoples' money.  utlizze credit, utilitze other people money to create wealth and opportunities


you must increase your income to acquire waelth, you have to reduce expenses an increase income as basic principles to develop wealth


easiest way are through tax savings and insurance savings and reduce your debts and payment interest fees


one way is investing in real estate (maybe a few years down the line for me maybe)


maybe investing in stocks or equities a portion of the income, also trading in stocks (difference between investing and trading)


use a multi level marketing company maybe, network marketing may not be the best but it can still be learned and used to help my front


they work...  if you work them


you have to start changing and listening to your recordings over and over again
