******************************************************** Today's issue includes: 1. Article - Profits are Better than Wages by Jim Rohn 1. Profits are Better than Wages by Jim Rohn My mentor, when I was 25 years old, dropped a phrase on me that changed my life forever when he said, "profits are better than wages. Wages will make you a living, profits can make you a fortune." You know it is a bit difficult to get rich on wages, but anybody can get rich on profits. Profits change your whole attitude, even if you start part-time. Whether it's part time on your entrepreneurial business, network marketing company or service business. It can be a landscape business in the summer or hanging Christmas lights in the winter. It can be training, consulting or tutoring. It can be your hobby such as painting, writing, crafts, woodworking, computers or cooking. But once you start investing even part time effort into your own business, you will find how much more exciting it is to get up in the morning and go to work on your fortune, even if you're only spending a few hours a week doing it. How empowering it is to be able to go to work on your fortune every day rather than going to work to pay the rent. Now - it is noble to go to work to pay the rent, but if you could also parcel out part of your time - go to work to make your fortune. Your whole attitude changes; your spirit changes. It is in your voice. It is in your face. It is in your gestures. And then you can say, "I am now working full-time on my job and part-time on my fortune because I found a way to make profits." Wow! And I will know what you mean. To Your Success, 2. Vitamins for the Mind by Jim Rohn Enterprise by Jim Rohn "Human beings have the remarkable ability to turn nothing into something. They can turn weeds into gardens and pennies into fortunes." "Enterprise is better than ease." "Showing a profit means touching something and leaving it better than you found it." "Enterprise is the hope of our future." "Profits are better than wages. Wages make you a living; profits make you a fortune." "We all know a variety of ways to make a living. What's even more fascinating is figuring out ways to make a fortune." "Kids ought to have two bicycles, one to ride and one to rent." ================================================== 3. It's Easy to Earn Money By Bob Proctor There is a very real possibility that everything you and I have been taught about how to earn money is so far from the truth that it´s almost comical. Earning money has nothing to do with age, formal education, gender or geography. It has nothing to do with past experience or your formal years of education or your level of intellect. Check it out … there are individuals who are functionally illiterate who have become multi-millionaires, while there are others who are absolutely brilliant and they are broke. Virtually anyone can be taught how to earn millions of dollars and yet the sad truth is that 97 out of every 100 people are born, live their entire lives, and die without ever learning how to earn money. To perpetuate this ridiculous problem, their ignorance is passed along from one generation to the next. Our school system has been designed as an environment to enlighten young minds, to replace ignorance with understanding and thereby improve the quality of life. Our educational system has obviously been successful in many areas. However, it has woefully neglected one important subject, “How to Earn Money.’ You can earn a doctorate degree in economics and have little or no knowledge of how to earn money. A lack of understanding in this area is the cause of numerous unwanted and unnecessary problems, since money is the medium of exchange that is used worldwide for other people´s products and services. There has always been a small, select group, approximately 3% of our population, who clearly understand that prosperity consciousness is the primary cause of wealth and their prosperity consciousness, like ignorance, is also passed down from one generation to the next. Let's look at “money.’ What is it? Money is a reward you receive for the service you render. The more valuable the service, the greater the reward. Thinking of ways we can be of greater service will not only help us earn more money, it will also enable us to grow intellectually and spiritually. Money Is An Idea I am aware there are books that instruct you on how to manipulate the market, stocks and people… they might even help you get money. But, let me caution you… when there is no spiritual growth… there is no spiritual strength… there is no lasting happiness… and, there is no real or lasting wealth. To accumulate wealth, a person must become very comfortable with the idea of money. That may sound strange, however most people are not comfortable with the idea of money, which is why they do not have any. The cause of poverty is poverty consciousness. A poverty consciousness will cause a person to see, hear, smell, think and feel ... lack and limitation. The late Mike Todd said, "Being broke is a temporary situation. Being poor is a mental state." He was correct. There are wealthy people who lose every cent they have through a series of mistakes in judgment … but that does not make them poor. They will have it all back in a short time because of their prosperity consciousness. If you have any question in your mind regarding your level of consciousness with respect to money, be very honest with yourself and look at your results. Study the patterns in your life. If you want to improve your financial position in life, focus your attention on creating a higher level of prosperity consciousness. Begin by preparing a powerful, positive affirmation and fuel it with emotion. When you do this, you are depositing this creative energy in the treasury of your sub-conscious mind. And, by repeating this process over and over and over again every day, it will begin to alter your conditioning and mentally move you in the direction you want to go. Write it out, read it, feel it, and let it take hold of your mind. How much money do you want? Saying you want more is not good enough. Five dollars is more. How much more? Decide on a figure. Be specific. You will not seriously want more money than you are capable of earning... however, you would be wise to remember, you must earn it.
There Are Three Income Earning Strategies Investing money to earn money – This strategy is used by approximately 3% of the population. The number is small for the obvious reason – very few people have any money to invest. Many people who effectively employ this strategy follow the advice of a trusted, knowledgeable advisor. Leveraging yourself to earn money – This is where you multiply your time through the efforts of others by setting up Multiple Sources of Income (MSI). This is, without question, the very best way to increase your income. Make a decision to have many sources of income; it´s the strategy that wealthy people have used dating clear back to the ancient Babylonians. Unfortunately, this strategy is only used by approximately 1% of our population, yet that 1% earns approximately 96% of all the money that is earned! You are only a decision away from membership. Once you determine how much money you want to earn, write it down on a sheet of paper in large figures. Look at the number with the dollar sign beside it and tell yourself over and over again: That Amount of Money is an Effect. You can take the total figure and divide it into multiple parts. Each part would represent a source of income. Each source of income represents a separate reward that you would receive for a service you would render. Work on one source of income at a time; each one can become an exciting part of your life. What you are actually doing is thinking of different ways you can be of service to others. Think of how you can do whatever you do – more effectively. Money is the ultimate servant. The more you earn, the more you can help others. For 40 years, Bob Proctor has focused his entire life and agenda around helping people create lives of prosperity, rewarding relationships and spiritual awareness.

Once the framework is in place, you'll learn how to: - Work with the laws of the Universe to achieve your goals in the easiest way possible.
"I spent four years in medical school and five years in psychiatric training that included a two-year fellowship in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. I have learned more through Bob Proctor and his teachings about the unconscious or subconscious mind than in all my years of training. Bob's program's clarify in our minds the scientific principles in life that we can all use to create the abundance we desire. They unify mind, body and spirit, as one strives to achieve financial abundance and add tremendous value to their work. Bob is truly a genius at clarifying these incredible principles and presents them in a very compassionate and caring manner." John M.

******************************************************** 6. Success Is On Your Horizon by Max Steingart You can start at anytime if you want to be successful. But you have to start. You won't accomplish anything if you wait for all the possible objections to be overcome. Taking a new step, uttering a new word, is what people fear most. Don't be afraid to live. Don't wait for things to change. Don't wait until you have more time, until you are less tired, until you get the promotion, until you settle down, until, until, until. Don't wait for a major event in your life to occur before you begin to live. Begin where you are. Work where you are. The hour you are wasting now, dreaming of some far off success, is crowded with tremendous possibilities. When you take the first step, your mind will mobilize all its forces to assist you. Once you have started, all that is within you and unknown forces around you will come to your assistance. The only way to start down the road to success is to move your feet, one step at a time in the direction you want to go. Success is waiting for you.

******************************************************** 7. Jim Rohn Testimonials - May 27 - June 2, 2003 Here are some of the dozens of testimonials and comments we received over the past week from E-zine subscribers. I really enjoyed reading this week's e-zine. It was very inspiring, motivating and filled with lots of insights. Thank you for the wonderful collection of articles, Vitamins for the mind, and the frequently asked questions to lead us in the right direction. Look forward to reading and hearing you. Hi, the Jim Rohn Weekly ezine is always a great read! I have been a part time working mom of three teenagers. Without the tapes it would be rough, they are always a pick me up. I'm always listening to a tape, kids in car. Hope they pick this up for later use. One of my kids does have a firm grasp on much of the info and applies in family life and school. Yesterday and today...my body just quit...in pain and absolutely no energy. I'd been pushing too hard, for myself and my business as well as a best friend who I brought home from a 10-day stay in the hospital last week after a serious operation leading to an illiostomy. I needed to hear you say never quit...today those words in the form of 'alternative avenues' rattled in my mind too many times. I believe in what I do...and I am outstanding doing it...and teaching others to be able to transform their life also. I'd forgotten that I really believe that. Thank you for reminding me, and being a mentor even though it has been unknown to you. Live and love with intention, blessings, and grace. Mr. Rohn has had a tremendous impact on my family's life through the years. His message and story are very inspiring and has helped keep us focused on the key ingredients to a miraculous and abundant life. A little over a year ago, I was introduced to the Jim Rohn materials through my company. I had begun reading his materials and learning the principles of his philosophy. I had only applied a small portion of what I was learning up until the first part of this year (January 2003) when I went through a seperation. After that, I began looking at my life, where I was at that time and where I wanted to be. I began to use the simple principles that I learned in his materials daily because they could be applied to any part of my life. It is amazing how a few simple principles used everyday can change your life so dramatically. I began to look for people who were successful in every aspect of their life, people that were positive, happy and emotionally healthy, so that I could learn from them, instead of people who only talked about these things but had never achieved them. I instantly began to see a change in myself, my attitude, my thinking and my perception of things. My whole outlook on life has changed. I am excited about where my life is headed, I am not afraid to face things head on and I am able to achieve things that I had only dreamed of. Where there was sadness and hopelessness, I have been able to find peace and joy. Where there was complacency and disgust, there is now a passion for life and resolve. I have begun to attract success rather than having to chase it. New doors are opening in my life that will help me achieve my goals much faster than I had hoped was possible. Life for me is becoming less complicated and more manageable. On a daily basis I read from The Treasury of Quotes. This little book serves as a quick reminder of something I can do everyday to make my life better, not to mention a great gift for family and friends. I am grateful to God and for all that I have learned through Jim Rohn and his materials. Thank you for everything and please keep coming out with more. Through a diary that I bought, it contained some of his articles. I have no words to describe the power beyond his words. Simply incredible. All are excellent and I am finding them very inspiring – thank you! Jim is The Major League Life Force for +++ Change. Jim is the master motivator. Thank you E-zine readers, for the sincere and kind words of encouragement and appreciation you sent us this week! -- JRI
