“Success is the result of nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day.” – Jim Rohn
Have you heard this leadership quote from Jim Rohn?
Jim Rohn was an american business man and motivational speaker. He left college as a young man after just one year and soon found himself behind on his debts. in the mid 1900s he was mentored by millionaire John Earl Shoaff, went on to create a multi million dollar fortune for himself, and spoke around the country on his personal philosophy that led him to his millions.
Success is Simple, But Not Easy
Jim Rohn understands the power of discipline – he had to use it himself to create his own fortune in the mid 1900s. Discipline doesn’t have to be on big things either, it can be a few simple things, as long as you have the tenacity to do them every day.
When you do something every day, even if it’s small, it builds upon itself until that first small result grows into something much larger. It is the power of compounding, and it works just as well for your money as it does for your skills, your home, your marriage and your friendships.
If you take a dollar, and you put it away every day, in a year you’ll have $365. When you earn 10% return on that money, you have an extra $36, and next year you’re earning a return on your money saved PLUS the return. In this way it grows and grows, even though it starts out small.
Now if you practice and perform something every day, maybe it’s making a call for a sale, maybe it’s catching up with your team, maybe it’s doing a new skill for a job you want to move into. If you do it every day your skill starts out unimpressive. But it builds, and it grows, and if you continue to do it every day you will be improving through your practice AND the existing experience you have gained.
Have the discipline to do something every day and you will be rewarded in ways you cannot imagine today.
