"You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself. That is something you have charge of. You don't have charge of the constellations, but you do have charge of whether you read, develop new skills, and take new classes." Jim Rohn

1. The Great Challenge of Life
by Jim Rohn
Here's the great challenge of life - You can have more than
you've got because you can become more than you are.
I have found that income seldom will exceed your own personal
development. Once in a while income takes a lucky jump, but unless
you grow out to where it is it will go back to where you are.
Somebody once said if you took all the money in the world and
divided it among everyone equally; it would soon be back in the same
pockets. However, you can have more because you can become more. You
see, here is how the other side of the coin reads - unless you
change how you are, you will always have what you've got. The
marketing plan won't do it. It's a good plan but it won't work
without you. You've got to work it. It is the human effort that
counts. If you could send a sales manual out to recruit - wouldn't
that be lovely? The major thing that makes the difference is what
YOU do.
In order to have more, you need to become more. The guy says "If I
had a good job I would really pour it on, but I have this lousy job
so I just goof off." If that is your philosophy you are destined to
stay there. Some people say if I had a lot of money I would be
really generous, but I don't have much so I'm not generous. See,
you've got to change that philosophy or you will never have "the
lots of money". Unless YOU change, IT won't change. Amazingly,
however, when we throw out our blame list and start becoming more
ourselves - the difference is everything else will begin to change
around us.
To Your Success,
Jim Rohn

2. Vitamins for the Mind by Jim Rohn
Career/Marketplace
My father taught me to always do more than you get paid for
as an investment in your future.
Whether you stay six weeks, six months or six years, always leave it
better than you found it.
Don't bring your need to the marketplace, bring your skill. If you
don't feel well, tell your doctor, but not the marketplace. If you
need money, go to the bank, but not the marketplace.
If you make a sale, you can make a living. If you make an investment
of time and good service in a customer, you can make a fortune.
Don't just let your business or your job make something for you; let
it make something of you.
Lack of homework shows up in the marketplace as well as in the
classroom.
Where you start in the marketplace is not where you have to stay.
The worst days of those who enjoy what they do are better than the
best days of those who don't.
We get paid for bringing value to the marketplace. It takes time to
bring value to the marketplace, but we get paid for the value, not
the time.
Here's the major problem with going on strike for more money: You
cannot get rich by demand.
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. The Four Universal Principles That Can Bring You Uncommon Success by Loral Langemeier
I talk a lot about having a particular mind set when working on
your business. It's the same wealth mind set I learned from my
mentor, Bob Proctor. Some of you have seen Bob's stick figure
drawings that show how we get the results we do in our lives.
Essentially, your thoughts become an idea. That idea causes a
particular emotion. The emotion alters your vibration, and the
vibration is expressed through action. The actions create the
results that show up in your condition, circumstance, and
environment. The action in turn causes a reaction that again alters
your results. This is the same cycle we run through daily, and it's
why a person stuck in poverty stays in poverty, and the person
finding incredible deals keeps finding more incredible deals.
The stick figure's "head" is split in two - the conscious and
subconscious. The subconscious is by far the larger of the two, and
is your power center. Any thought you continuously impress upon your
subconscious becomes fixed, or in the words of Michael Roach,
"germinate, then expand." This is where the principles put forth by
Roach really intrigue me. I see a lot of truth in these principles,
and I'll explain each in my own words.
The Four Principles:
1. Whatever it is you are currently experiencing always matches the
general content of thoughts that were at one time impressed upon
your subconscious.
2. The strength of the original impression continuously expands in
your subconscious until it flowers and forces you to have an
experience that directly relates to that impression.
3. No experience of any kind ever happens unless there was an
original thought that had been impressed that relates to the
experience.
4. Once a thought has been impressed in the subconscious, it must
lead to an experience. No impression is ever wasted.
I'll try to relate these principles to a practical application, so
you can get a sense of their power. A young girl is told repeatedly
that women don't have a good mind for business. This thought is
impressed upon her subconscious, and grows throughout her teens.
What she sees, and the experiences she has are in alignment with
this impression and cause it to grow. She goes through college,
finds a job, and moves to an area that is experiencing a real estate
boom. However, all the houses she finds are bad deals, or she
arrives too late. Her experiences match the impression in her
subconscious that she doesn't have a good mind for business.
A second young girl is told that she can do anything she wants, and
that she's got a good mind for business. Her experiences serve to
reinforce this impression, and by the time she moves to the same
area as the first girl, she's already created several businesses for
herself. She sees incredible deals all over town, and jumps on them
immediately.
Here we have two girls living in the same town. One sees great
deals, the other gives up because she can't seem to find any decent
deals. One believes she has a knack for business, and the other is
convinced she's not good at business. The experiences they have and
the circumstances that greet them on a daily basis match whatever
has been impressed upon their subconscious minds.
How this Information can Change Your Life:
First, you have to realize that whatever it is you are currently
experiencing is a result of thoughts and actions from your past.
Current circumstances are no more or less than the expression of
what has been impressed upon your subconscious mind. You are simply
experiencing what you have prepared yourself to experience.
I see this as very good news, and here's why. If what you're
currently experiencing is a result of past thoughts and actions,
then doesn't it apply that your future experiences will be a result
of your present thoughts and actions? Yes it does!
You may have heard me talk about the importance of being in action,
and about compartmentalizing your tasks throughout the day. That is,
when it's time to do email, you do email. When it's time to work on
a particular project, that's what you do. This requires diligence
and sometimes a great deal of practice to stay focused. When you act
in this way, you start creating little successes in each part of
your life. These successes and the focused attention create NEW
impressions upon your subconscious. These new impressions will
eventually surface in the form of new experiences.
Think of it a different way -- and this will blow your mind. To
experience what you want in the future, all you have to do is begin
impressing into your subconscious the thoughts that directly relate
to that experience today, then acting according to the feelings you
have when you impress those thoughts. This is how you create new
experiences.
Simply figure out what you want to experience, and work your way
back from the experience to determine the thoughts and actions that
will create the experience. This always works, without exception.
Positive thoughts get reinforced through positive action, and
negative thoughts through negative action. It's an incredibly simple
concept to understand, but takes a lot of patience and persistence
to get right, and you have to stick with it.
Here's a practical example. Say you want to get involved in flipping
real estate, but your current experience is that everyone else seems
to find the good deals, and that you always get there too late. Look
back at your life to examine the thoughts and actions that were
impressed upon your subconscious and resulted in your current
experience. In "The Diamond Cutter", Roach goes through 46 business
problems people face, and identifies the root cause and how to
create new impressions.
It's likely that, if you're always behind or left out, you had this
image of yourself impressed upon your subconscious early in your
life. Maybe your brother or sister got all the attention, or you had
to wear his or her old clothes. These thoughts create feelings of
inadequacy, resentment, or jealousy. Actions are then based on these
feelings, and reinforce the impression of "not good enough".
You have to break the cycle and create new, positive impressions.
What I like about Roach's approach is how much it requires very
specific action to create a new impression in your subconscious.
People who don't take the time to do a financial baseline or
forecast are fueling the impression of lack - lack of time; lack of
resources; or lack of money. To create the opposite impression in
your subconscious, complete your baseline and forecast as a way of
impressing the thought that "there is plenty of time to do what's
needed for my business, and I believe I can make my targets."
It's important to understand that the simplest tasks often create
the most powerful impressions. Knowing that you have over 60,000
thoughts in a day, what if you took actions throughout the day that
required you to have mostly positive thoughts?
In the above example, the person who feels that everyone else gets
the good stuff would benefit from having a mini-celebration every
time she hears about another person's success. This impresses the
idea that there are good deals to be had, and getting them is a very
good thing. Yes, it's that subtle, and that easy to create new
impressions. Remember to give it time, though.
Creating the Impressions that Result in Building Wealth and the
Expression of Your Power:
1. Examine your current situation and understand what has been
impressed upon your subconscious.
2. Create the vision of what you want to experience in the future.
3. Determine the thoughts and actions that will most likely result
in those experiences.
4. Define the strategies and tactics necessary to impress the right
thoughts and take the right actions.
5. Go into action.
More specifically:
If you haven't already created your 2006 baseline and forecast, do
it as soon as possible to nurture the impressions of success.
Take the steps to protect your assets and your business. This helps
to create the subconscious impression of your value and worth.
Develop real marketing plans for your business to impress upon your
mind your ability to succeed.
Create or further develop your wealth team. Surround yourself with
quality people you trust, and you impress upon your subconscious the
energy or idea of quality. This results in quality experiences.
Celebrate in the success of your colleagues, and learn to
collaborate instead of compete. Collaboration and celebration (and
gratitude) create impressions of success in your subconscious, so
that you may create future experiences in which you feel celebrated
and grateful.
Summary:
These are extremely powerful concepts. Yes, you absolutely need to
learn about and exercise the fundamentals of wealth building.
Develop your plan and strategy. Create your baseline and entity
structuring. But, perhaps most importantly, begin creating the kinds
of impressions on your subconscious that will eventually lead you to
the experiences you want to have. I am constantly working on my
mental conditioning, as should you if you want to join me at the
head of the table.

4. The SIG + C of Wealth
The SIG + C of Wealth
For years Jim Rohn has subscribed and
taught the SIG + C formula of how to create wealth, that is to
Save 10%, Invest 10% and Give 10% of your income, starting as
early as possible (this is also a must formula to teach and
train your kids at an early age). Jim also adds the C, to enlist
yourself and your kids in capitalism by finding ways to create
income by bringing value to the marketplace (for your kids it
can be mowing yards, selling lemonade, fixing up a bicycle,
etc).
To save 10% can be accomplished multiple
ways, including savings accounts and cds. Giving 10% is fairly
straight forward as well. But the investing part can get a
little more risky and complicated (knowledge, skills and
education are vital). And as we be become adults, finding ways
for us to create income through capitalism (starting a part or
full-time business or revenue producing income), also requires
good ideas and knowledge.
All this brings us to a very fascinating
person - Loral Langemeier. Loral has been doing and teaching all
the above for over 20 years--how to be financially free and debt
free, as well as how to create wealth through real estate,
investing and business ownership, as well as how to protect your
profits and investments from loss and from over paying tax.
Basically strategies on how to multiply your earning power,
short and long-term income, create long term assets and to pay
as little tax as legally possible. It is also the same
information and strategies that she gives her multimillionaire
clients!
Loral helps you explore why you will stay
in your current cycle unless you develop a master financial
plan, and poses an interesting question: "Money will not come to
confusion. It comes to clarity. If you are not clear and focused
on what you want, how will you get it? Who will you serve?
