4 of 5) 1. THE NEW MILLENNIUM AND YOU by Jim Rohn (Part Four of a five part series) This week is Part Four of our five part series on The New Millennium and You. We began with the question of "what should be our philosophy as we approach not only a new year or decade, but also a new millennium?" To help answer that question, I chose to borrow from a book I wrote over 20 years ago called "The Seasons of Life." Here is a summary of the three parts published in the previous weeks: Part One: a) I believe as we approach this new millennium there are overriding principles that we should follow and be led by. b) That life is about constant, predictable patterns of change. c) For all of us, the only constant factor is our feelings and attitudes toward life. d) We as human beings have the power of attitude and that attitude determines choice, and choice determines results. Part Two: a) Life and business are like the changing seasons. b) You cannot change the seasons, but you can change yourself. c) A major lesson in life to learn is how to handle the winters. d) Winter time allows you to get stronger, wiser, better. The winters won't change, but you can. Part Three: a) Spring is the season for entering the fertile fields of life with seed, knowledge, commitment, and a determined effort. b) It is the promise of spring that as we sow, so shall we also reap, that for every disciplined human effort we will receive a multiple reward. c) There are just a handful of springs that have been handed to each of us. Don't just let the seasons pass by. This week we will talk about the third major lesson in life to learn; how to nourish and protect your crops all summer. Sure enough, as soon as you've planted, the busy bugs and noxious weeds are out to take things over. Here is the next bit of truth: they will take it, unless you prevent it. There are two key phrases to consider with the third major lesson. The first is "all good will be attacked." Don't press me for a reason. I was not in on some of the early decisions, so I don't know why. I just know that it's true. Let reality be your best beginning. Every garden will be invaded. The second phrase is "all values must be defended." Social values, political values, friendship values, business values - all must be defended. Every garden must be tended all summer. If you don't develop this skill, you'll never wind up with anything of value. But for those who make diligent efforts to plant, protect, and preserve there are not enough birds, bugs, or other obstacles to destroy all the efforts of last spring. (Next week we will talk about fall, the time of harvesting the fruits from our springtime labor.)

VITAMINS FOR THE MIND Vitamins for the Mind are a weekly sampling of original quotes, on a specific topic, taken from The Treasury of Quotes by Jim Rohn. TTOQ are a collection of over 365 quotes on 60 topics gathered from Jim's personal journals, seminars and books spanning over 35 years. This week's topic: PERSEVERANCE/PERSISTENCE by Jim Rohn It takes time to build a corporate work of art. It takes time to build a life. And it takes time to develop and grow. So give yourself, your enterprise, and your family the time they deserve and the time they require. Americans are incredibly impatient. Someone once said that the shortest period of time in America is the time between when the light turns green and when you hear the first horn honk. The twin killers of success are impatience and greed. How long should you try? Until. Some people plant in the spring and leave in the summer. If you've signed up for a season, see it through. You don't have to stay forever, but at least stay until you see it through. To order or to get more information on the TTOQ by Jim Rohn, or excerpts from the TOO by Jim Rohn, Brian Tracy or Mark Victor Hansen, please see details on our Featured Specials. GIFTS THAT INSPIRE AND MOTIVATE! "It is hard to keep that which has not been obtained through personal development." Jim Rohn 3. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Each week we take one or two specific or frequently asked questions about or addressed to Jim Rohn and provide the answer. Q1. Dear Mr. Rohn, I have met you on a number of occasions (and have listened to your "7 Strategies for Wealth and Happiness" so many times I almost have it memorized). I would be very interested in downloading your audio programs to my Casio Cassiopeia E-100 handheld computer for portable listening. www.audible.com has several programs I have purchased on line. I would rather listen to them "now" rather than waiting for the "old fashioned" mail to deliver "old fashioned" cassette tapes. Can you please let me know when you will have this available? Sincerely, Kevin W. A1. Unfortunately Kevin, we do not offer the above service. It is our understanding that within a few years the technology you are referring to will be a viable option to receive current audio programs of Jim's. For now - we have audio, video and books; and will release Jim's Two-day seminar on CD and The Best Year Ever video series on DVD in November.
