"Success is nothing more than a
few simple disciplines, practiced every day; while failure
is simply a few errors in judgment, repeated every day. It
is the accumulative weight of our disciplines and our
judgments that leads us to either fortune or failure." Jim Rohn

7. More Information
1. Creating Opportunity by Jim Rohn
An enterprising person is one who comes across a pile of scrap
metal and sees the making of a wonderful sculpture. An enterprising
person is one who drives through an old decrepit part of town and
sees a new housing development. An enterprising person is one who
sees opportunity in all areas of life.
To be enterprising is to keep your eyes open and your mind active.
It's to be skilled enough, confident enough, creative enough and
disciplined enough to seize opportunities that present themselves...
regardless of the economy.
A person with an enterprising attitude says, "Find out what you can
before action is taken." Do your homework. Do the research. Be
prepared. Be resourceful. Do all you can in preparation of what's to
come.
Enterprising people always see the future in the present.
Enterprising people always find a way to take advantage of a
situation, not be burdened by it. And enterprising people aren't
lazy. They don't wait for opportunities to come to them, they go
after the opportunities. Enterprise means always finding a way to
keep yourself actively working toward your ambition.
Enterprise is two things. The first is creativity. You need
creativity to see what's out there and to shape it to your
advantage. You need creativity to look at the world a little
differently. You need creativity to take a different approach, to be
different.
What goes hand-in-hand with the creativity of enterprise is the
second requirement: the courage to be creative. You need courage to
see things differently, courage to go against the crowd, courage to
take a different approach, courage to stand alone if you have to,
courage to choose activity over inactivity.
And lastly, being enterprising doesn't just relate to the ability to
make money. Being enterprising also means feeling good enough about
yourself, having enough self worth to want to seek advantages and
opportunities that will make a difference in your future. And by
doing so you will increase your confidence, your courage, your
creativity and your self-worth – your enterprising nature.
To Your Success,
Jim Rohn

2. Vitamins for the Mind by Jim Rohn
Enterprise
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.
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. To order the TTOQ by Jim Rohn or Excerpts from TTOQ by Jim Rohn or Brian Tracy, please go to Jim Rohn's Online Catalog
3. The Value of External Feedback by TC Cummings
So much within competitive sports can apply to the grander picture
of our lives. All we need to do is transfer the lessons learned.
A client of mine, Mike Buckley, is one of the most skilled hockey
goalies in the world. Mike's coach consistently produces top draft
picks for the National Hockey League (NHL). Every year since
college, Mike has ranked in the upper percentile in skills
competitions. With these amazing abilities, why hasn't Mike yet made
it into the NHL?
Like so many of us, Mike's challenge was in applying his focus on
the right thing at the right time so that he could allow his skills
to come out and live successfully.
Working with a personal coach, Mike discovered his strength was also
his weakness. According to Rob Day of PuckStoppers, his goaltending
coach, Mike has the ability to examine his performance during
practice and make corrections and adjustments that are amazingly
effective -- possibly the best Rob has seen.
During game time, however, Mike would react to the pressure by
constantly examining himself. This inappropriate, self-conscious,
self-doubt distracted him from experiencing the moment and allowing
him to perform authentically.
We've all heard the saying, "The unexamined life is not worth
living." Yet, how do we go about our daily lives, experiencing the
full benefit of living in the moment if we are preoccupied with
self-conscious examination?
Have you ever found yourself in a sort of whirlwind of
self-examination and doubt? How does it feel? People say it can feel
disempowering with seemingly no end in sight. We are all susceptible
to it. Often we find escape routes to hide from our own examination.
Sometimes these escapes are overtly destructive (drugs and alcohol
abuse) and other times, we bury ourselves in work, exercise or
volunteer aid -- fooling ourselves that this is a healthy place to
hide.
What's the solution? How do we experience the moment and enjoy life
while still getting the best performance from ourselves? After all,
people are depending on us.
Purposeful, objective observations and relevant questions delivered
in trust and confidence set us up to win consistently. Scheduling an
hour every week with a no-holds-barred friend or committing to an
effective personal coach elevates our self-awareness and can
increase both our performance and self-acceptance. And this focused
time, dedicated to self-examination, removes the need for such
introspection during real-life situations where our attention is
needed elsewhere. We then allow ourselves to experience life while
it happens!
Now we elevate our confidence higher still! Confident that we are
free to enjoy the moment because we know there is a time for
examination.
Over these past summer months, Mike learned to leave his
self-examination off the ice and trust in his skills. Mike played in
"high-caliber" leagues in which single-man defenses allowing 15
goals per game is considered acceptable.
Fifteen goals? How about none? On June 28th, 2004, Mike delivered
the first-ever shutout in the oldest, most prestigious league in the
city. Mike lead his team to the league championship while
experiencing more fun and confidence than he's ever had on the ice!
A couple of nights ago, Mike called me from the road. He was passing
through Buffalo, N.Y. on his way to his new home with a minor league
team where he has been placed by one of the three NHL teams pursuing
him!
How could my friend's lesson - purposeful, professional,
self-examination - empower you?

What does it mean to be "psychologically unemployable"? Congratulations
because if you are reading this information your curiosity has been
sparked by my title and you are either already an entrepreneur or are in
the process of becoming one. Becoming an entrepreneur means learning a
new set of life skills that will allow you to hone your craft so that
you can get paid what the free market bears for the value and service you
bring to the marketplace.
The game of free enterprise and entrepreneurship is really the game
of your life and the question is: "Are you ready to play?" Are you ready
to start? When the whistle blows will you be ready to take off from the
starting line or will you be sitting on the bench tying your shoes? Are
you ready to get in the game of free enterprise? If so you are playing
for high stakes – your freedom your dreams and your life on your terms!

5. New JRI Weekly Coaching
|
NEW JRI Weekly Group Coaching
Have you ever thought, "I wonder if anyone else struggles with what I do; faces
the same challenges? Have they found workable solutions for those challenges?"
"I wish there was someone I could ask questions, bounce ideas off of and work
together to strategize solutions." Or have you ever thought, "Wow! That solution
worked! I know there are others out there struggling through what I've just come
through and I sure would love to share it for the benefit of others!"
Here at Jim Rohn International, we receive emails on a daily basis from people
just like you, asking the questions and searching for answers to the questions
and challenges they face in their everyday lives. In response to those requests,
a few years ago we created the Jim Rohn One-Year Success Plan -- a weekly email
driven program that broke down 12 key life areas and guided people through a
year-long development plan -- the response was phenomenal, massive results and
positive changes for people.
But again, our forward-moving, ever-developing customers asked for more, this
time something with even more interaction and more person-to-person
opportunities. So once again, we went back to the drawing board and
launched the Jim Rohn Coaching program with Master Coach TC Cummings. Again
customers responded and as a result, our coaching program has grown and now
offers four uniquely, diverse coaches.
Now, for those who are not familiar with the benefits coaching provides, in
essence what professional coaching strives to accomplish is a relationship --
with built-in accountability -- fostering the belief that you know the answers
to your own questions better than anyone. With all the distractions, self-doubt,
and "selective amnesia" bombarding us, the invaluable service coaching provides
is illuminating the answers that already exist by creating a safe atmosphere to
elevate your own personal awareness. The long term benefit this creates is that
this awareness will permeate all aspects of your life, long after the conclusion
of each coaching session.
However, the one nagging challenge we here at Jim Rohn International are
constantly working to meet is: "How can we maximize our coaches time and reach
the most people with this amazing, life-impacting information?" And this is what
we challenged our coaches to do. Well, they put their heads together, rose to
the challenge and created JRI Weekly Group Coaching -- an exciting next level to
one-on-one coaching -- the power of a group. Synergy! Because we all know that a
group can accomplish more than just one!
Our JRI Weekly Group Coaching calls are an exciting, innovative solution to keep
you focused, motivated and aware of the important things that keep you
successful! In your busy world, there are many distractions. Wouldn't you like
to purposefully realign yourself for success each week?
The JRI Weekly Group
Coaching calls are an easy, convenient way to do just that! Each one of our Jim Rohn Coaches has a high level of expertise in their specific field and has
created four unique, key topics according to their expertise:

I have just finished listening to your Weekend Leadership Event
2004, it runs continuously in my car to and from where ever it is
that I am going, and also on my MP3 player. Fantastic information, I
just wanted to share how much I enjoyed this collection. I have most
of your collection and certainly never want to stop learning. I saw
you in Singapore and again at the Summer Spectacular for a training
event, and I am looking forward to seeing you again in Thailand
later this year for Herbalife. I am hoping that my husband will be
able to attend so he'll understand what I have been raving about for
the past 12 months. I would love to know if you are going to have
another extraordinary Weekend Seminar in 2007? I would not want to
miss it!
-- Victoria Cuzzubbo
You don't remember me, but I have never forgotten you! We last met
the week of 8/19/1973 when I turned thirty. You were a VP with "Bestline"
and I was a General Distributor. I joined Bestline following a
horrific car crash that terminated my law school education. I was
feeling very sorry for myself and could not see the purpose of life.
More than anything or anyone else, you had the most profound affect
on me at that time when I needed it the most. Shortly afterwards, I
met the love of my life and soon married her. She helped me go back
to school which allowed me to become a doctor that I always wanted
to be. We raised two of the best sons that God ever awarded a man. I
have attended many of your seminars, and think of them often and
fondly. I hear your voice in my mind telling the story of the woman
who bought a brand of baked beans that her husband didn't even like.
"To save 2 cents !" It's moments like those that have had a profound
effect on me and I'm sure on untold thousands. I will always recall
the hours spent listening to you in person or on tape. Keep up the
good work for many Happy years to come.
-- Dr. Bob Greenberg
I just wanted to let you know that I was excited to receive my order
on Friday 12 May and was especially delighted with the gifts
included being the four little quote books from Jim, Zig, Brian and
Dennis - wow they are so handy and useful! Art of Exceptional Living
is wonderful, as is Jim in the particular way he conveys his
thoughts and messages -please give him my regards. I look forward to
getting into the products and learning more. Thanks so much for your
wonderful assistance, you are all really making a difference. Jim's
material is really inspiring me and making a difference in my
philosophy and my outlook on life on this planet. When I see people
now, I always try to do my best in relating to them, be it a smile
or hello, trying to be that little bit different. It is surprising
the results you get back when you just give things a go - and the
joy that is received is simple, but powerful. I'm going to keep
working on myself more than on my job!
-- Chris Ashdowne
Thank you E-zine readers, for the sincere and kind words of encouragement and appreciation you sent us this week! -- JRI
