The Secret of Success

By: Brian Sylvan What's holding you back from succeeding in your dreams? Jim Rohn, a leading expert in personal achievement and goal setting, says that neglect might be holding you back.

Does that mean that the secret of success then is the opposite of neglect? The thesaurus states the antonym of neglect is to care for or to look after. But this does clear things up to much. Perhaps looking to Jim Rohn's wisdom will help us understand.

Jim Rohn was a millionaire by the age of 31. He attributes his success to his ability to look after or care for the success characteristics others neglected.

Jim Rohn listened to successful people. His friends neglected to do this.

Jim took are of setting goals.

Jim took care of his mind and attitude by reading good books.

Rohn points out opportunities exist all around us. There's plenty of money in the world. There are plenty of changes at education. There are plenty of jobs out there. There are an infinite number of different types of careers to try.

Don't be like so many folks who neglect. Stop the neglect now. You're more than mediocre.

Don't neglect your life. Don't neglect to surround yourself with worthwhile associates. Don't neglect to set goals that ignite your passions and desires. Don't neglect your attitude. Don't neglect those around you.

Unfortunately, neglect brings us down. Just like a neglected house, the problems go beyond just the cosmetic.

Neglect actually affects us on a spiritual and mental level. We lose confidence in ourselves. Our attitudes turn negative. We let down the people we love most. We doubt we can succeed. We doubt our talents. We lose ourselves.

The way to counter neglect is to take care of your dreams by acting on them. Doing something that moves you in the direction of dreams. Do not neglect the things that will move you toward your goals.

Acting will remove neglect from your life. Period. So start doing something. Now.
