Learn all you can, don’t be lazy. Nothing’s worse than being stupid. Being broke is bad, but being stupid is what’s really bad. And what’s really really bad is being broke and stupid. Nothing’s much worse than that. Unless you’re sick. Sick, broke and stupid, that’s about as far as you can fall unless you’re ugly. Surely that would be the ultimate; ugly, sick, broke and stupid.

Life is brief, even at its longest. Whatever you are going to do with your life, get at it. All good will be attacked. All values must be defended. In all areas of the human existence, what we put into this world, we get back from it.

My goal is to translate response into results. Some teachers teach for others to learn. That’s not me. Some teachers teach for others to accomplish. That is me.

Network marketing is really the greatest source of grass-roots capitalism, because it teaches people how to take a small bit of capital, that is your time, and build the American dream.

Jim Rohn

Network marketing is the big wave of the future. It’s taking the place of franchising, which now requires too much capital for the average person.

On the way to work, concentrate on the way, not the work.

One of the first things successful people realize is the old adage, ‘If it is to be, it is up to me’. That is, for you, the fact that your success and your course is up to you. This doesn’t mean that you do it all alone. It simply means that you take responsibility for your life and your career.

Jim Rohn

Opportunity shies away from need, but opportunity is attracted by talent and ability. What you don’t want to happen is opportunity to turn cool on you. You don’t want to offend opportunity. So the only thing you present to opportunity is ability, performance and skill. Don’t present need to opportunity.

Jim Rohn

Our philosophy about activity and our attitude about hard work will affect the quality of our lives. What we decide about the rightful ratio of labor to rest will establish a certain work ethic. That work ethic – our attitude about the amount of labor we are willing to commit to future fortune – will determine how substantial or how meager that fortune turns out to be.

Part of your heritage in this society is the opportunity to become financially independent.
