1. How Do You Attract Opportunity Into Your Life?
Someone recently asked me the question: "How can I have more opportunities come
into my life?" Good question, but I think my answer surprised them a bit.
I bypassed the obvious (and necessary) points about hard work, persistence and
preparation. They actually were very hard workers. And they had the great
attribute of being seekers, they were on the outlook. But I felt maybe they were
missing this next and most valuable point - attraction.
I always thought opportunities and success were something you went after, then I
found out that I needed to turn it around. Opportunities and success are not
something you go after necessarily, but something you attract - by becoming an
attractive person.
That's why I teach development of skills. If you can develop your skills, keep
refining all the parts of your character and yourself, your health, your
relationships, etc. so that you become an attractive person to the marketplace -
you'll attract opportunity. Opportunity will probably seek you out. Your
reputation will probably precede you and someone will want to do business with
you. All of the possibilities are there by working on the philosophy that
success is something you attract.
The key is to continue making yourself a more attractive person by the skills
you have, the disciplines you have, the personality you've acquired, the
character and reputation you have established, the language and speech you use -
all of that refinement makes you more attractive to the marketplace.
Personal development - the never-ending chance to improve not only yourself, but
also to attract opportunities and affect others.
To Your Success,
Jim Rohn

2. Vitamins for the Mind by Jim Rohn
Activity/Labor by Jim Rohn
You must learn to translate wisdom and strong feelings into labor.
The miracle of the seed and the soil is not available by affirmation; it is only
available by labor.
Make rest a necessity, not an objective. Only rest long enough to gather
strength.
Without constant activity, the threats of life will soon overwhelm the values.
The few who do are the envy of the many who only watch.
For every promise, there is a price to pay.
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

3. Conquer Doubt by Vic Johnson (excerpted from Day by Day with James Allen)
"Thoughts of doubt and fear can never accomplish anything. They always lead to
failure." - As A Man Thinketh
There is significant economic evidence that the Great Depression might have been
avoided but for the "panic" that swept over the country (and the world) after
the 1929 stock market crash. What should have been no more than a deep recession
altered our world forever because of the prevailing “thoughts of doubt and
fear.”
So great were the thought of fear that President Roosevelt felt compelled to
deliver a speech about it. By the way, FDR's speech with his now famous, "the
only thing we have to fear is fear itself," was suggested to him by Napoleon
Hill, author of the classic, Think and Grow Rich.
If the thoughts of many can bring such great tragedy to our world, is it any
wonder that our personal thoughts can do so much damage to our "individual
world." When we spend inordinate amounts of time fearing some thing or event in
the future, many times that which we fear comes upon us. When it does, we wring
our hands in despair and wonder why it had to happen to us, when in reality, we
are responsible for our troubles.
Bob Proctor says that the process begins first with a thought of doubt, which
causes an emotion of fear, which manifests itself physically as anxiety. Anxiety
robs us of our power, our energy and our purpose. Severe anxiety can even
undermine our health. And it's all brought on by a thought of doubt.
I have found three things that help me conquer doubt. First, change your mind
about the doubt, and keep it changed. If you have a doubt about whether you're
going to have enough money to make it to the end of the month, change your mind
about it. Whenever the doubt creeps in, affirm to yourself that "I always find a
way to have enough of what I need." I love what Emmet Fox says about this, "If
you will change your mind concerning anything and absolutely keep it changed,
that thing must and will change too. It is the keeping up of the change in
thought that is difficult. It calls for vigilance and determination."
The second thing that overcomes fear and doubt is action. "Do the thing you fear
and fear will disappear" is more than a nice rhyming aphorism. It's some simple
wisdom that always works!
And the third and most important thing to overcoming doubt and fear is Faith.
Fear and Faith are directly opposite views of the future and they cannot
co-exist. My Faith is in a Creator who has given me dominion over all things.
Your Faith may be elsewhere, but know this: Faith and fear cannot be present at
the same time.
And that's worth thinking about.

"We must all suffer from one of two pains: the
pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs
ounces while regret weighs tons." Jim Rohn

"All disciplines affect each other. Mistakenly
the man says, 'This is the only area where I let down.' Not true. Every let down
affects the rest. Not to think so is naive."
