from Jim Rohn's Legacy
Known as the "Business Philosopher," his training would benefit not just career but spirit as exemplified in his quote, "Give whatever you are doing and whoever you are with the gift of your attention." That advice applies not only to your boss or peers but to family, friends and that clerk at the store. When was the last time you stopped texting or talking or being distracted and looked a check-out clerk in the eye and said, "thank you"?
Rohn's Jim Rohn International."Five Major Pieces to the Life Puzzle" are:
- Philosophy - How and what you think; it's the little things that matter.
- Attitude - How you feel about the events in your life; taking responsibility.
- Action - What actions you take to reach your goals and how you respond to events.
- Results - You must track and measure your progress, then make adjustments to improve.
- Lifestyle - The life we choose to live and how the first four pieces affect it.
As he might say, nothing earthshattering in those ideas, but the importance is in the details. In fact, his definition of failure says it all: "Failure is nothing more than a few errors in judgment repeated every day." Those tiny missteps add up to a life not lived to the fullest. By contrast, monitoring your thoughts, feelings, actions and results on a daily basis can change your life in a major way.
