love jim rohn. thanks for sharing these awesome quotes
Jim Rohn is amazing, Sheena! Thanks for commenting.
I’m a big Jom Rohn fan and of all his quotes, my favorite is βLearn how to be happy with what you have while you pursue all that you want.β because so many people, including myself once upon a time, do not follow this.
Gratitude is our best weapon for hopelessness and despair and practicing it daily will help us build a better life.
Such an amazing quote, isn’t it Noel! I too didn’t follow that at one time, always wanting to get to the next level but never really stopping to appreciate all that I had in the present. Gratitude and appreciation is the key to a fulfilling life!
Thanks for commenting.
This man was filled of such wisdom, as can be seen in his quotes. My favorites are 3, 24 and 25. Appreciate the share of Jim’s thoughts.
Glad you enjoyed them Carol π
Great quotes by J. Rohn very powerful… I like the one about being motivated is not enough because an idiot can have motivation and only be a motivated idiot, so funny and so true…
Hahaa that quote made me laugh when I first read it too, Kahnie! But there’s so much truth in it π
Excellent quotes, Alex!
Glad you like them Annalize!
