Success is Simple
by Jim Rohn
Have you heard about the
accelerated learning curve? From birth, until
the time we are about eighteen, our learning
curve is dramatic; and our capacity to learn
during this period is just staggering. We learn
a tremendous amount very fast. We learn our
language, culture, history, science,
mathematics...everything!
For successful people, the accelerated learning process will
continue on. But for most people only wishing
for some sort of success, it levels off when they get their first job.
Because for most people, if there are no more exams to take, if there
are no demands placed upon them to study, then
there is really no reason to read any more
books. But it
doesn't have to be that way for you.
Try to imagine what would happen if you kept up an
accelerated learning curve for the rest of your
life... Try to imagine
what MLM skills you could learn, and the capacities
you would have... I ask you this because I
believe success is simple, but only for that unusual person who
keeps up his or her learning curve and develops an appetite for always trying to
find good ideas.
One great way to find good
ideas is
through the writings of influential people. Maybe you can't meet the person,
but you can read his or her
books. Churchill is gone, but we still have his
books. Aristotle is gone, but we still have his ideas. Search
libraries for
books and programs. Search magazines. Search documentaries. They are full
of opportunities for intellectual feasting.
In addition to reading and listening,
you also need a chance to do some talking and
sharing. I had many people in my life who helped me with
important life questions, who assisted me in refining my own philosophy, weighing
my values and pondering the questions about success and lifestyle.
We all need association with people of substance to provide
influence concerning major issues such as society,
money, enterprise, family, love, friendship, culture,
taste, opportunity, and community.
Philosophy is mostly influenced by ideas, ideas are mostly influenced by
education, and education is mostly influenced by the people with whom we associate.
One of the great fortunes of my life was to be
influenced over a period of five years by a man
named Mr. J. Earl Shoaff. During that time he shared
ideas with me at dinner,
during airline flights, at business conferences, in private conversations
and in groups. Those ideas enabled me to make small daily
adjustments in my philosophy and activities. Those daily changes, some
very slight but very important, were soon making
all the difference in my life.
And a big part of the lesson was having Mr. Shoaff repeat those
ideas over and over again. You just can't hear the fundamentals too often.
The repetition of good ideas are the building blocks for
a well-developed mind... It's true; with the
right ideas, habits and goals, success is
simple.
So remember to feed your mind
just as you feed your body.
Feed it with good ideas, wherever they can be found—MLM business ideas, product ideas, service ideas, ideas for
personal improvement. Because every new idea will help to refine your philosophy.
Your philosophy in turn will guide your life, and your life will unfold with
distinction and pleasure.
To Your Success,
Jim Rohn
