1. The Key to Making Life Unique and Worthwhile by Jim Rohn

Now the key to make life really unique and worthwhile is to share. Sharing has a certain unique magic of its own. Here's what I learned in sharing ideas.

If you share an idea with ten different people, they get to hear it once, and you get to hear it ten times. So here's part of self-interest for yourself, getting you even better prepared for the future. Share ideas. Share with your family, share with the people around you, share with other employees, share with your colleagues.

Because by sharing, two things happen. Here's what we call it. I don't know how to explain it, but I do know it happens. And I don't know all about how it happens or why it happens, it just happens.

When one person shares with another, two things happen. The audience could be transformed, and so could the speaker. If you share with someone else, they could be transformed. You may have dropped in at the right time. This may be their moment. They've got three numbers dialed into the lock already, and if you say it well and say it right you'll be the fourth number that they can dial into the lock of their personal experience and the door will come open and there's opportunity they never saw before. The person who hears could be transformed.

But here's what else is exciting. The person who speaks could be transformed. Guess what we're all looking for…transformation for our new life. The new life tomorrow, the new life this month, the new life next year, the new life this year.

The caterpillar one day says, "I think I was made for more than this crawling on the ground." So the caterpillar climbs the tree, attaches himself to a leaf and spins the cocoon. Who knows what disciplined effort it takes to spin a cocoon. But something inside the caterpillar says, "I was designed for something more than being just a caterpillar."

And then when the cocoon is ready and it opens up, out comes a butterfly that flies away, maybe singing, "I believe I can fly! I believe I can touch the sky! I used to be a caterpillar on the ground, now I fly."

I'm asking you to go through such a metamorphosis. I'm asking you often to go through a period where you say, "New skills, new things are waiting for me," and part of this will come if you'll translate for other people what you feel in your heart and in your soul. As awkward as your language might be at first, don't hesitate to do it.

Here's what sharing does…makes room for more. Key question, if this glass is full of water can it hold any more? If the glass is full of water, can it hold any more? And the answer is yes, yes, if you pour some out. So jot that down. If you want more, you've got to pour out what you've got, then you have the opportunity to receive more.

Now, unlike the glass that remains the same size when you pour some out; not so in consciousness human beings. Your capacity will increase the more you share. You'll get bigger and bigger and bigger.

Now why the self-interest wish to be bigger? Here´s why… to hold more of the next experience. Some people can't hold much happiness because they're too small, their thinking is too small, their activity is too small, they're too small in their ability to share, they're just too small. Can't hold much, they're too small.

But the bigger you get, the more you will receive. When happiness is poured out, you'll get more. When joy is poured out on the nation, you'll get more. When bounty is poured out from the economy, you will get more, if you share what you've got and become bigger and bigger and bigger.

Now some people are not only small, they have their glass turned upside down. Hard to get anything in. But here's what you've done in coming here this weekend. You've come with an open mind, an open consciousness, ready to receive, and I promise you we´re going to pour everything we possibly can into every ounce of time we've got here to make it beneficial for you, give you not just your money's worth but your time's worth.

To Your Success,
Jim Rohn

2. Vitamins for the Mind by Jim Rohn

Asking/Belief/Resolve

Asking is the beginning of receiving. Make sure you don't go to the ocean with a teaspoon. At least take a bucket so the kids won't laugh at you.

There is no better opportunity to receive more than to be thankful for what you already have. Thanksgiving opens the windows of opportunity for ideas to flow your way.

Resolve says, "I will." The man says, "I will climb this mountain. They told me it is too high, too far, too steep, too rocky and too difficult. But it's my mountain. I will climb it. You will soon see me waving from the top or dead on the side from trying."

Disgust and resolve are two of the great emotions that lead to change.

 


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 Meanwhile by Zig Ziglar

The late William Arthur Ward was one of my favorite writers. His insights and ability to put a philosophy of life into a few words were truly remarkable. Here is a sample from his book, "Reward Yourself":

A man phoned his physician and excitedly exclaimed: "Please come at once, Doctor. My son has swallowed my fountain pen."

The doctor replied, "I'll be right over. But what are your doing in the meanwhile?"

"Using a pencil," answered the father.

What we do "in the meanwhile" is of vital importance to our lives--and to the lives of others. What we do "in the meanwhile" can build our character or destroy it. It can make our fortune or mar it.

What we do "in the meanwhile"... presents a philosophy of life. Adopt it for your own, and you truly will reward yourself.

"Shortly after I met my mentor he asked me, 'Mr. Rohn, how much money have you saved and invested over the last six years?' And I said, 'None.' He then asked, 'Who sold you on that plan?'" Jim Rohn


 

5. Customer Testimonials - October 2 - 8, 2007

Here are some of the dozens of testimonials and comments we received over the past week from E-zine subscribers. To read more recent testimonials and the hundreds we have received from readers over the years, please go to Customer Testimonials

Some days ago I wrote an email, enquiring about my order. Today when I came home after work my wife gave me the box you sent me. It gave me joy, but not only joy it brought me educational materials which will enhance my life and the lives of those around me. When I realized that I was not patient enough, I went to pick up the book: "Leading An Inspired Life" and read again the chapter about: "The Substance and Strength of Patience", from now on I will be more patient, because already I witness changes in my personal life since I started to read the book mentioned above. All the changes are happening miraculously… Therefore it is with great and sincere gratitude I offer my thanks to all of you, but above all I offer my gratitude and admiration to Mr. Jim Rohn, to whom I send belated Best Wishes for his 77th Birthday.
-- Domenico

Thank you so very much for sharing and giving of your time so generously with us this past weekend on this 2-Day Weekend Event. You have superseded our expectation. It is indeed an honor for my husband and I to have met you in person. How we came to know of you initially was one beautiful summer day August 10, 2007 when my husband and I were to drive upstate for a weekend trip to Falmouth, Cape Cod for a road race. That weekend, we decided to take you along with us on that trip via the audio tape called "Challenge To Succeed – A Philosophy for Successful Living." Little did I know that this weekend would be forever life changing for me personally as we turned the driving experience into a Mobile University. Since that time, I've made further investments into pouring food for my mind for my personal development per your suggestions. Noticeably, my husband  even commented, "Boy, what's gotten into you?" He just couldn't believe the transformation that has taken place since that time! Out of the 13 list of one year goals, your name has now been proudly checked off my list of leaders I had set out to meet. Thank you! The heartfelt gratitude is like an eternal beacon of light that has paved my way to a more faithful and hopeful future. Your philosophy, wit and wisdom will always remain imprinted in our hearts forever! You have given a new found meaning to the age old expression, "when the student is ready, the teacher will come." Well, thank you for patiently waiting for this student to come for you to share your ageless philosophy and wisdom.
-- EA Marcus

 

Thank you E-zine readers, for the sincere and kind words of encouragement and appreciation you sent us this week! -- JRI
