1.  All Life Wishes to Reward Its Benefactors by Jim Rohn (Excerpted from the 1999 Weekend Seminar CD series)

Parents, leaders, employers, teachers and volunteers have you discovered one of the great positive mysteries of life? Here it is - All life seems to wish to reward its benefactors.

If you become the benefactor, you will receive these incredible rewards. If you are the benefactor to the garden, the flowers seem to bloom and say, "Look at me. Look how bright and beautiful I am because you took care of me. I wish to reward you by being beautiful, lovely, spectacular."

Your own children, if you become their benefactor, they want to reward you with their progress. I taught my daughters how to swim. And my daughters would say, as they were about to dive, "Daddy, daddy watch, watch, look, look, watch" as if to say; "look what you have created here, you've spent the time with me and now look at me. This is the payoff. Watch me dive." I was their benefactor.

I have found that all life wishes to respond to the benefactor. The ones who give their time, give their effort, give their patience, give their ideas, the benefit of their experience. Whatever has benefited from that, wishes to respond. The crop wishes to grow. The child wishes to show you how much progress they've made.

And remember that whatever you move towards tends to move towards you. Just as when you move toward education, and education starts to seek you out. Or when you move toward progress and progress seems to want to now embrace you. You will find that, just as predictably, as you move towards helping those in your care they will wish to repay you with their own success and accomplishments.

To Your Success,
Jim Rohn

2. Vitamins for the Mind by Jim Rohn

PLANNING

I find it fascinating that most people plan their vacations with better care than they plan their lives. Perhaps that is because escape is easier than change.

If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they may have planned for you? Not much.

The reason why most people face the future with apprehension instead of anticipation is because they don't have it well designed.

The guy says, "When you work where I work, by the time you get home, it's late. You've got to have a bite to eat, watch a little TV, relax and get to bed. You can't sit up half the night planning, planning, planning." And he's the same guy who is behind on his car payment!


 

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.  Seven Self-Motivators by Brian Tracy (excerpted from the Success Mastery Academy)

Here are seven Self-Motivator reminders for you to review on a regular basis.

#1 - Get Serious. Make a decision to go all the way to the top. Up to now you've thought about it. Up to now, it's passed your mind. Many of you made the decision, and you've made up your mind to go all the way to the top, and your lives have taken off. It's the most extraordinary thing. Your life is one, like in the shadow going up the dark side of the hill until the moment you decide that "By gum, I'm gong to be the best at what I do. I'm going to be in the top 10 percent." And suddenly you rose into the sunshine, and your life is forever after different - wonderful. Get serious. Don't fool around anymore.

#2 - Identify Your Limiting Step to Sales Success. What's your limiting step? What's the one skill area that's holding you back? What's the skill? What's the quality? What's the action? Ask other people. Find out what you need to become good at. Sometimes it may be only one skill. If you became really, really good on the telephone, you could maybe double your prospecting effectiveness and double your sales. If you became very, very good at getting the order at the end from qualified prospects, you could double your sales. If you became very, very good at managing your time to really, really manage your time well, you may be able to double your face time and double your income. Find out what's holding you back. What is the critical limiting step that's determining your success today?

#3 - Get Around the Right People. Who are the right people? The right people are the people in this room. Get around winners. Get around positive people. Get around people with goals and plans, people who are going somewhere with their lives and have high aspirations. Get around eagles. As Zig says, "You can't scratch with the turkeys if you want to fly with the eagles." And get away from negative people. Get away from toxic people that complain and whine and moan all the time. Who needs them? Life is too short.

#4 - Take Excellent Care of Your Health. Take excellent care of your physical health. That means good diet, good exercise. Everybody knows they should eat better foods, get regular exercise and especially lots of rest. That's very important. If you're going to work hard 5 days a week, go to bed early 5 days a week. Get a good night's sleep. Be fully rested, and tonight get really rested. You don't have to watch the Letterman Show...

#5 - Positive Visualization. See yourself as the very best in your field. Remember, all improvement in your life begins with an improvement in your mental pictures. Visualize yourself, see yourself as the best continually. You are the best. Isn't that right? So therefore, see yourself as the best.

#6 - Positive Self-Talk. Talk to yourself positively all the time. Control your inner dialogue. And what do you say to yourself? Say, "I'm the best." Say it. Say I'm the best. I like myself. I can do it. I love my work. Yes, that's how you talk to yourself. And the more you say it to yourself...someone may say, "Well, what if you say those things to yourself and you don't believe them. Isn't that lying to yourself?" No, that's not lying to yourself. It's telling the truth in advance. Because it doesn't matter where you're coming from - all that matters is where you're going. Talk to yourself the way you want to be, not the way you just happen to be at this moment. Remember, you may have gotten where you are today largely by accident. But where you're going in the future is purely by design.

#7 - Positive Action. Get going. Move fast. Develop a sense of urgency. A sense of urgency is the one thing that you can develop that will separate you from everyone else in your field. Develop a bias for action. When you get a good idea, do it now. Only 2% of people in our society have a bias for action. And if you're already in the top 10%, you can move yourself in the top 2% by resolving that whenever you have an idea or something, do it now. And the faster you move, the better you get. And the better you get, the more you like yourself. And the more you like yourself, the higher your self-esteem is. And the higher your self-esteem is, the greater your self-discipline. And the more you persist, then you ultimately become unstoppable.

Remember, You're the best!

Brian Tracy is the author of The Success Mastery Academy which is part of this week's special, The Five Day Seminar Package Blowout Offer -- at 80% off the normal retail price, free shipping*, two additional Bonuses and a payment option! For more information or to purchase go to http://5day.jimrohn.com or call 800-929-0434.



"To solve any problem, there are three questions to ask yourself: First, what could I do? Second, what could I read? And third, whom could I ask?" Jim Rohn

 

4. The Five Day Seminar Package Blowout Offer!

We have put together an incredible one time offer that is a must for every personal development and office library.

This Package will help you to:
  • Increase Sales
  • Increase Productivity
  • Increase Your Skills
  • Increase Your Time
  • Increase Results
  • Improve Relationships
  • Excel in Economic Downturns
  • and Much, Much More!

If we told you that in addition to receiving 80% off the normal retail price, that you will also receive free shipping, two additional Bonuses and a payment option - would you be interested in receiving such a package?

This package includes Jim Rohn and Brian Tracy and contains over 36 hours, 27 modules and over 1,000 wealth-building ideas. It has been translated from five powerful "live" seminar days onto CD and DVD, and can be purchased for a fraction of the "live" seminar cost (can also be purchased in individual units).

With the package you receive:

  • 5 Days "live" of Jim Rohn/Brian Tracy on CDs and DVD
  • 27 Modules on everything from Leadership, Setting Goals, Financial Independence, Time Management to Self-Esteem in Sales, Balancing Family and Business and Negotiation
  • Over 1,000 of the world's greatest success ideas and principles
  • 7 additional bonuses (for the first 100 to order)
  • Free Shipping (for the first 100 to order)

All this for less than $200 (over 80% off the total retail value) or an option to pay out over 3 months (this very special offer lasts only one week).


The Jim Rohn/Brian Tracy Five Day Seminar Package

Now, instead of paying $2,000 to attend these five days and hear this valuable information just one time, you can receive the entire audio/video package and have it available for unlimited review for yourself and your family for only $199. Your question could very well be why would Jim and Brian make THIS ONE TIME OFFER for ONLY $199 for the entire contents of their seminars? The answer is three-fold:

First, Jim and Brian already have extremely crowded calendars and more speaking events are not an option. Secondly, since they each do their own Two Day Seminars (Brian's Success Mastery Academy and Jim's Weekend Seminar) only one time every two to three years, it dramatically limits the number of people that can attend. Thirdly, the cost of paying both the tuition and travel expense to attend these life-changing and enhancing events can be prohibitive for many people. So in the interest of offering an incredible value and giving thousands more people the opportunity to have access to some of their very best material, Jim and Brian have put this package together. In order to take advantage of this offer, please read below (make sure you respond immediately to not only take advantage of the steep discount, but also for the additional free shipping and bonus products for the first 100).


What is the Five Day Seminar Package?
It has been translated from five powerful "live" seminar days onto CDs and DVDs, and can be purchased for a fraction of the "live" seminar cost.

Included in these five days (36 hours, 27 modules and over 1,000 wealth-building ideas) is Brian Tracy's Two Day Success Mastery Academy (16 CDs, workbook and 16 modules), Jim Rohn's 1999 Weekend Seminar (12 CDs) and Jim Rohn's One Day Seminar - How To Have Your Best Year Ever (5 hours on 1 DVD), plus the 8 additional bonuses. If you were to attend these five days in person, the investment could be as much as $2,000 to hear the information just one time (versus the luxury of having it recorded to listen to over and over again).

The information Jim and Brian share in this 5-day course not only encompasses business and success principles, but also physical, spiritual, relational and financial principles of success.

This program goes beyond an investment in your future to skills you will use your whole life long. This weekend is pure magic, I have never heard Brian so alive and very funny as well!
