6. More Information
1. Reaping a Multiple Reward by Jim Rohn
For every disciplined effort, there are multiple rewards. That's
one of life's great arrangements. In fact, it's an extension of
the Biblical law that says that if you sow well, you will reap
well.
Here's a unique part of the Law of Sowing and Reaping. Not only
does it suggest that we'll all reap what we've sown, it also
suggests that we'll reap much more. Life is full of laws that
both govern and explain behaviors, but this may well be the
major law we need to understand: for every disciplined effort,
there are multiple rewards.
What a concept! If you render unique service, your reward will
be multiplied. If you're fair and honest and patient with
others, your reward will be multiplied. If you give more than
you expect to receive, your reward is more than you expect. But
remember: the key word here, as you might well imagine, is
discipline.
Everything of value requires care, attention, and discipline.
Our thoughts require discipline. We must consistently determine
our inner boundaries and our codes of conduct, or our thoughts
will be confused. And if our thoughts are confused, we will
become hopelessly lost in the maze of life. Confused thoughts
produce confused results.
Remember the law: "For every disciplined effort, there are
multiple rewards." Learn the discipline of writing a card or a
letter to a friend. Learn the discipline of paying your bills on
time, arriving to appointments on time, or using your time more
effectively. Learn the discipline of paying attention, or paying
your taxes or paying yourself. Learn the discipline of having
regular meetings with your associates, or your spouse, or your
child, or your parent. Learn the discipline of learning all you
can learn, of teaching all you can teach, of reading all you can
read.
For each discipline, multiple rewards. For each book, new
knowledge. For each success, new ambition. For each challenge,
new understanding. For each failure, new determination. Life is
like that. Even the bad experiences of life provide their own
special contribution. But a word of caution here for those who
neglect the need for care and attention to life's disciplines:
everything has its price. Everything affects everything else.
Neglect discipline, and there will be a price to pay. All things
of value can be taken for granted with the passing of time.
That's what we call the Law of Familiarity. Without the
discipline of paying constant, daily attention, we take things
for granted. Be serious. Life's not a practice session.
If you're often inclined to toss your clothes onto the chair
rather than hanging them in the closet, be careful. It could
suggest a lack of discipline. And remember, a lack of discipline
in the small areas of life can cost you heavily in the more
important areas of life. You cannot clean up your company until
you learn the discipline of cleaning your own garage. You cannot
be impatient with your children and be patient with your
distributors or your employees. You cannot inspire others to
sell more when that goal is inconsistent with your own conduct.
You cannot admonish others to read good books when you don't
have a library card.
Think about your life at this moment. What areas need attention
right now? Perhaps you've had a disagreement with someone you
love or someone who loves you, and your anger won't allow you to
speak to that person. Wouldn't this be an ideal time to examine
your need for a new discipline? Perhaps you're on the brink of
giving up, or starting over, or starting out. And the only
missing ingredient to your incredible success story in the
future is a new and self-imposed discipline that will make you
try harder and work more intensely than you ever thought you
could.
The most valuable form of discipline is the one that you impose
upon yourself. Don't wait for things to deteriorate so
drastically that someone else must impose discipline in your
life. Wouldn't that be tragic? How could you possibly explain
the fact that someone else thought more of you than you thought
of yourself? That they forced you to get up early and get out
into the marketplace when you would have been content to let
success go to someone else who cared more about themselves.
Your life, my life, the life of each one of us is going to serve
as either a warning or an example. A warning of the consequences
of neglect, self-pity, lack of direction and ambition... or an
example of talent put to use, of discipline self-imposed, and of
objectives clearly perceived and intensely pursued.
To Your Success,
Jim Rohn

2. Vitamins for the Mind by Jim Rohn
Sowing and Reaping by Jim Rohn
You must get good at one of two things: sowing in the
spring or begging in the fall.
God has the tough end of the deal. What if instead of planting the
seed you had to make the tree? That would keep you up late at night,
trying to figure that one out.
Plant, don't chant.
One of my good friends always says, "Things don't just happen;
things happen just."
The soil says, "Don't bring me your need, bring me your seed."
Vitamins for the Mind is a weekly sampling of original quotes, on a specific topic, taken from The Treasury of Quotes by Jim Rohn (TTOQ). TTOQ, a beautiful, burgundy hardbound book with gold foil lettering, is a collection of over 365 quotes on 60 topics gathered from Jim's personal journals, seminars and books spanning over 39 years.

3. Problems Bring Lessons by Vic Johnson (excerpted from Day by Day with James Allen)
"As a progressive and evolving being, man is where he is that he may
learn that he may grow; and as he learns the spiritual lesson which
any circumstance contains for him, it passes away and gives place to
other circumstances." - As A Man Thinketh
It has taken me a long time to be able to look at a problem I'm
having as a necessary spiritual lesson. To be frank, I'm still not
always really excited to be enduring the pain and frustration that
negative circumstances usually cause. Some days I'd like to "play
hookey" and skip the lesson. :-)
But as I look back at my life, it is easy to see that the times when
my wisdom and understanding grew to new levels; those times when I
approached becoming the person I long to be; it was always the times
that followed negative circumstances. The greatest growth you're
going to have is going to come from the negative circumstance you
have today that sometimes seems too overwhelming, too big to scale.
Writing in Byways of Blessedness, James Allen is strong in his call
for us to embrace our circumstances. "Let a person rejoice when he
is confronted with obstacles, for it means that he has reached the
end of some particular line of indifference or folly, and is now
called upon to summon up all his energy and intelligence in order to
extricate himself, and to find a better way; that the powers within
him are crying out for greater freedom, for enlarged exercise and
scope.
"No situation can be difficult of itself; it is the lack of insight
into its intricacies, and the want of wisdom in dealing with it,
which give rise to the difficulty. Immeasurable, therefore, is the
gain of a difficulty transcended."
Maybe that explains why it sometimes seems that I can't shake a
particular problem, or I have one that keeps rearing its ugly head.
Instead of fighting it, I need to jump in and gain the insight and
wisdom to handle it. Then it would be gone, and I would be ready for
the next lesson -- only stronger, both in spirit and in wisdom!
And that's worth thinking about.

4. Three Ways to Jumpstart 2006!
|
If you are like me, even though your schedule is packed and
you're coming out of the busiest time of the year, you're still
saving some of your mental energy and focus for your goals and
plans to make 2006 your best year ever.
Why? Because, as we have all heard, failing to plan is often
really planning to fail. Just by investing the time to sit down
and write your rough list of goals, right now for 2006, you will
be ahead of 90% of the population in actually achieving your
goals in 2006. Plus it will give you an opportunity to let those
goals start affecting your thinking now and up until the new
year, at which time you can refine your list and then set
strategies around achieving your goals.
The value of having a plan is unparalleled in the achievement of
worthwhile goals. And with that in mind, here is just a reminder
of 3 support systems we offer at JRI for the upcoming year:
|
|
1) Our 90 Days to Life Change Course starting in January. It is a
bonus course that is included with your purchase of the 2004 Jim Rohn Weekend
Leadership Package (with special guests Denis Waitley, Brian Tracy and
more). For details go to Weekend
Leadership Event The 2004 Event is approximately 24 hours. The only redundancy it has in
relation to the 2001 event is only 8 hours (Jim's individual portion has
the same topics as the 2001 event). The additional 16 hours of the 2004
event is completely different from the 2001 -- different speakers and
topics, i.e. Denis Waitley's two hour presentation, Brian Tracy's two
hour presentation, plus Jerry Clark, Chris Widener, Donna Krech, TC
Cummings etc., plus VIP lunches with Jim and Denis and Jim and Brian,
and Vic Johnson's "No Dream Too Big" breakfast session. The teen session
includes Jim, Chris Widener, Denis Waitley and Charlie "Tremendous"
Jones, and a 3-hour Speaker Roundtable discussion includes all the
speakers along with audience participation. It even has comedian, Garet
Chester, doing four special appearances as Jack Nicholson, the
Godfather, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jim Rohn himself - you'll love
this. Then to top it all off, we had 9 bonus interviews with the
speakers. This is an incredible event with priceless information
presented from every speaker to every interview.
The 2004 Event is broken into 12 - two-hour DVDs (to see the individual
DVD selection menus go to Weekend
Leadership Event) and 24 CDs (over 250 tracks), plus a comprehensive
283-page workbook and bonuses.
And it is also accompanied by the Bonus 90 Days to Life Change
Course!

hundreds of unsolicited testimonials. Make a commitment today to
guarantee your own personal growth in 2006.
"The Jim Rohn 1 Year Success Plan is the most professional,
encouraging, broad-based, intelligent, stress-free, and value-rich
business program on the planet. It is a sumptuous buffet that invites
one and all to 'Come and Dine - eat what you can now - and come back as
often as you like forever.' Through this program I am more
time-efficient, I disconnected the television, turned my car into 'auto
university', keep my desk cleared of clutter and focus on one task at a
time; I would not think to start my day, week, etc. before they are
finished; I am more conscious and guarding of my environment and
associations including indirect associations such as news, advertising,
and noise pollution; I impersonalize the 'rejection' factor in sales
more; I do not take in rude remarks but rather see they are a reflection
of the speaker; after the most comprehensive month on goal-setting ever,
I am more proficient in goal-setting and more intentional about the
'why' of each goal; I developed an annual goal workbook from these
materials that tracks daily, weekly, monthly, and annual goals; I have
gained leadership tools; and I have more self esteem. These improvements
represent a small plateful of this feast. I recommend this program to
everyone from high school up. Its value is priceless and yet costs so
little." -- Catherine King

about superior customer service, superior profit, and desirable work. In
the end we made a significant decision with all of us agreeing to the

Dear Mr. Rohn, I don't know if this email will reach you but I take
the liberty of sending it to you. My name is Vida and I am a 55 year
old woman living in Spain. I receive almost every week your weekly
ezine. At first I used to read it with curiosity. Now I look forward
to receiving it and print everything you say in this weekly ezine
and keep the copy in a file for me to re-read now and then. I have
to say that your words are always very wise and have helped me to
discover many things in life. I thank you very much for all your
wise comments in this weekly ezine. Wishing you all the best for
this new year and hope you can continue for many years to come in
this wonderful path you have chosen to help others.

Hi Hilary, I just got done reading the Twelve Pillars and it is
awesome. Tell Jim that it really made a difference for me. And I
feel that the Twelve Pillars would be a great book to give new
people getting started in to Network Marketing. For the reason that
number 7, Be a Life Long Learner, gives a list of books that new
people need to read to be able to become more valuable. I would like
to sometime have Mr. Rohn come to Cedar Rapids, Iowa and speak. He
is outstanding.
-- Regis Zweigart
Dear Yveatte, RENEW my subscription for the 90 Days to Life Change.
It's been extremely helpful! Thank you!
