When I started out in sales many years ago Jim Rohn was always there for me to help me get my career off the ground.
I made only $17,000 in my first year in sales and Jim was there to help me.
I changed jobs and didn't know if I was going to be able to pay the bills and Jim was there to help me.
I got my first Management job and Jim was there to help me.
I made a big life change and decided to become a Realtor and Jim was there to help me.
Jim was always there for me, listening to his voice always grounded me. He was my Knight in Shining Armor. Late at night when I was worrying, Jim was there to calm me. I was driving to my sales appointments and Jim was there to pump me up. When I was getting frustrated and not making sales, Jim was there to give me advice.
When I finally made it, Jim was there to celebrate with me.
Here are some of the quotes from Jim Rohn that made an impact on my life:
"Work harder on yourself than you do on your job."
"To have more than you've got, become more than you are."
"Success is doing ordinary things extraordinarily well."
"We get paid for bringing value to the market place."
I met Jim Rohn at one of his seminars in Denver in the 1990's and it was the highlight of my early career. It was great to see him in person. I wish I had gotten a picture with him.
Jim Rohn passed away late last year. (1930-2009) It was a great loss.
Jim, one day I will see you and I look forward to that day. Thanks for everything you did to help me, you made a difference in my life.
