Vitamins for the Mind by Jim Rohn


Lessons of a Lifetime

“Success is not something you pursue. What you pursue will elude you. It can be like trying to chase butterflies. Success is something you attract and accumulate by the person you become.”

"If you could do better, should you? It’s not a bad question to ask. If I could do better, should I? If I could read more, should I read more? If I could try more should I try more? If I could expand my business and help more people, make my enterprise more successful, should I do that? And there’s always the contest of how far to go and how much to do….If you’ve got one little successful business going, should you double it? Should you triple it? Do not let expansion absorb all of your time or take away time that you should be devoting to in your life: your business and your friendships and your family. It is a never ending challenge: priorities and reordering priorities in your life."

"Be faithful when the amounts are small. If you wish to preside over riches, you must start when the amounts are small."

"Life is worthwhile if you try. Try to make a difference, try to make some progress, try to learn a new skill, try to learn a new sport. It's worthwhile if you try. Doesn’t mean you can do everything, but there's a lot of things you could do if you just try."

The Millionaire Booklet by Grant Gardon

This great book by Grant Cardone summarizes the steps that you should take in order to achieve financial success. Below I outlined the main points that I took from this book. As with any summary, I believe it should be used as a refresher, as a list of guiding points that help remember the contents of the book. To fully understand and apply the following points, it is highly recommended to actually read the book. It does not replace the actual experience of reading the book, nor is it intended to. You can purchase “The Millionaire Booklet” (Audible/Hardcover)  here . or you can grab it for free by visiting this link  https://m.me/BenjieMalino Getting rich is about offense, not defense. Step 1. The Millionaire Decision. You must make a decision that you will become rich. Millionaires are today’s new middle class. The idea of having just enough money or not enough is insane and ridiculous. Settling for mediocrity is selfish because you can not take care of others i...

Seeking Out Quality People by Les Brown

It is important to align yourself with what I call OQP, Only Quality People. You should endeavor to surround yourself only with people who will enrich and empower you, people who will enable you to transcend yourself and to grow. This sort of support group, your pit crew for progress in your life, can strengthen you in moments of weakness and bring you up when you are down. Surround yourself with people who share your vision and who also are willing to support you in pursuing that vision. You cannot make it alone in this journey. If you find relationships that are not mutually constructive, if someone brings you down rather than challenges and elevates you, then you must make a decision. Can you transform this into a healthy relationship or do you need to sever it? That does not mean of course that all of the people around you should be your yes-men. You will never grow if you are surrounded by backslapping sycophants. Although I hate being criticized by friends, I do have som...

This Is How You Leave a Legacy by Jim Rohn

    Jim Rohn, the philosopher who has left an indelible legacy of time-proven principles and wisdom, shares his secret for making an impact.   “You know me, I am a philosopher. I love principles. Yes, actions are great and I talk about them regularly, but the important stuff is what lies underneath—the principles,” Rohn says.    Here are the principles he says we must commit to in order to leave the legacy we desire: 1. Life is best lived in service to others. This doesn’t mean that we do not strive for the best for ourselves. It does mean that in all things we serve other people , including our family, co-workers and friends. 2. Consider others’ interests as important as your own. Much of the world suffers simply because people consider only their own interests. People are looking out for number one, but the way to leave a legacy is to also look out for others. 3. Love your neighbor even if you don’t like him. It is inter...
