Video Recap – Challenges To Persue (Jim Rohn)

You're back! Be sure to follow me on Twitter before leaving.

An incredibly inspiring video from the late, great, Jim Rohn. Worth listening to once every three months or so to keep you on course. Here’s a summary below:

1. Review your performance – always do more than what you get paid for, to make an investment in your future. Review how you handle situations.
2. Face your fears – don’t dismiss them, just face them.
3. Exercise your willpower to change direction – don’t keep doing the same things, if it’s not taking you to where you want to be. Pick a new destination, and go that way. Clean up the errors.
4. Admit to your mistakes – some of the most powerful words in the English dictionary: “I’m sorry”. Rohn’s right when he says that those two words can change lives.
5. Refine your goals – always review what your goals are, to ensure you’re still heading towards them.
6. Believe in yourself – there isn’t a class you cannot take. There isn’t a book you cannot read.
7. Ask for wisdom – ask people who have been there. Ask for wisdom to help you face challenges. And one of his best quotes; “Don’t wish it was easier, wish you were better”.
8. Conserve your time – 10 years or 10 times?
9. Invest your profits – “wages make you a living, profits make you a fortune”. Invest everything you have into everything you do.
10. Find your place – Keep doing it well, and you’ll get to where you want to be. Don’t slack because you hate your job, work harder because you hate it.
11. Work on your gifts – If you work on your gifts, they’ll make room for you. They’ll make a place for you.
12. Demand integrity from yourself – Show integrity and loyalty, and others will show it back. You cannot demand it from someone else. Be the best example of both.
13. Welcome the disciplines – a well-disciplined activity creates abundance, of productivity, and uniqueness. Discipline builds bridges, towns, and cities.
14. Fight for what’s right – Fight for whatever it is that’s important, and keep faith.
