Change / Choice / Decision

Here below are the quotes of Jim Rohn. Hope they inspire and instruct you to start a new beginning at the start of new year...

"One of the best places to start to turn your life around is by doing whatever appears on your mental "I should" list." Jim Rohn

"You cannot change your destination overnight, but you can change your direction overnight." Jim Rohn

"Decision making can sometimes seem like inner civil war." Jim Rohn

"Don't say, "If I could, I would." Say, "If I can, I will." Jim Rohn

"It doesn't matter which side of the fence you get off on sometimes. What matters most is getting off!" Jim Rohn

"You cannot make progress without making decisions." Jim Rohn

"We generally change ourselves for one of two reasons: inspiration or desperation."Jim Rohn

"If you don't like how things are, change it! You're not a tree." Jim Rohn

"I used to say, "I sure hope things will change." Then I learned that the only way things are going to change for me is when I change." Jim Rohn

Read Books And Build Your Library!

"Miss a meal if you have to, but don't miss a book." Jim Rohn

As the new year begins, it is a good idea to read books and build your library because books open the mind to new horizon and possibilities. I didn't have a good habit to read books but when my mentor told me to read as many books as I could, I decided to cultivate the habit of reading books. It paid me a great reward and I succeeded in reading books which interested me.

Majority of people miss reading books and I can understand where they stand and what they feel or think about reading or not reading books because I was one of them. People have favourite restaurants to eat their favourite meal but they have not found a favourite place to feed their mind. They miss on reading books and miss everything that a book could unfold and unravel the mystery.

When you buy a book, you start building your library and that is how your knowledge and information expand. With each book you read and buy, you grow higher and higher and then a great reward comes your way. There is so much gain in reading books as you get the opportunity to learn many valuable life changing information. Acquire books and read them to set your life on course.

Start with a book, read it and continue to read another and then by year end, your library will have 365 books. You must be ravenous enough to acquire them for your future and better life. Read books that suit you and enable you to excel. Don't read trashy things instead read books that increase your knowledge.

Ask For Wisdom From Higher Source!

A great new year 2011 has just begun and it is a moment of exhilaration for all of us because we value our time and put in a lot of efforts to live and thrive successfully. With this moment of exhilaration comes expectation, wishes, desires, ambition, confusion and illusion, but all these things can be enlightened once we try to seek first the wisdom which can make this year a great, successful and healthy one.

Before beginning any journey and endeavour, mankind from all walks of life have prayed for wisdom to guide them through and when they asked for wisdom from higher source, they received it and managed to pass through any physical, social, mental and emotional ordeal. In the same manner, I prayed for wisdom in order to transform my lifestyle, philosophy, success, happiness, relationship, business and environment; I was endowed with wisdom to bring in a great change in my life. Many wise quotes, scriptures messages, advice, recommendation, books, audio & video programs, seminars, guides, coaches, mentors and role models appeared. I was inundated with more wisdom than I ever expected to receive. I am a new person now and I know my originality, my individuality, my integrity, loyalty, honesty, truthfulness, the sacred code, the responsibility and confidence that I should place on my God given gifts.

On the first day of my new life in this new year 2011, I thank the Higher Source for wisdom, guidance and people who I ran into while praying for wisdom and enlightenment. I thank my guides, coaches, mentors and role models who motivated, inspired and encouraged me to keep going persistently towards my goals, dreams and vision. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart. And I truly mean it.

When you ask for wisdom, it flows from all directions and I would say it emerges from all 360 degree angles. Be willing to welcome them and be wise to select those which would serve you well meeting all your requirements. When you ask for wisdom, it truly shows up. Try out and prove it for yourself. Listen not to your negative voices and negative people around you because they don't know you and they haven't tried out themselves and even if they tried, don't conform to their opinions. Think for yourself and believe in yourself because you are the big one right now.

Thank you new year 2011. You look promising and rewarding!

Asking/Belief/Resolve (Quotes by Jim Rohn)

Jim Rohn has been one of my greatest mentors, though I couldn't meet him in person but I encountered him thousands of times reading his inspirational wisdom and insights, which really transformed my lifestyle, philosophy and values. I hope you find your mentor too...

"Success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying basic fundamentals." Jim Rohn

"There are no new fundamentals. You've got to be a little suspicious of someone who says, "I've got a new fundamental." That's like someone inviting you to tour a factory where they are manufacturing antiques." Jim Rohn

"Some things you have to do every day. Eating seven apples on Saturday night instead of one a day just isn't going to get the job done." Jim Rohn

"Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practised every day; while failure is simply a few errors in judgement, repeated every day. It is the accumulative weight of our disciplines and our judgements that leads us to either fortune or failure." Jim Rohn

The Earth Needs A New Leader!

Today I had a discussion with my friend Ravi about the need for a new kind of leadership to lead all the creatures from the planet to a sustainable and clean environment ecosystem. Out of our telephone conversation, an awareness emerged that the existing leadership in politics, business, education, health, agriculture and others won't really spearhead a new system. These leaderships are fake, superficial, corrupt, greedy, conventional and direction less. They won't figure out new ways and new technology to save the planet earth from the disaster.

So where can the leadership emerge from? The real leadership will come from outside the political circle and corporate culture. Political and corporate leaderships have failed to create a sustainable and clean earth instead they have contributed to the global catastrophe. They are in the myopic and unfit system that they can't rethink a new system to solve global issues. These people have succeeded in satisfying their own desires mutually at the expense of the earth. They have exploited the earth's resources so much that they don't mind dying when the natural calamity will strike the earth.

What the earth needs is a new breed of leaderships who are highly motivated, directed, focused and committed enough to spearhead a new society, a new civilization and new clean technology innovation. It is possible to innovate new technological tools to sustain human beings and other creatures on the planet. The fossil fuels shouldn't be the fundamental sources of energy on the planet. We must be able to produce energy from the sun for another billion years. Sun is a viable energy source and we should be committed deeply to design technology to intensify the energy harvesting.

I am quite sure when a new breed of leadership is in place, it will give way to clean environment and sustainability of living beings. The leadership will come from ordinary citizens because they are the real observers of the changing climate and weather conditions. So let's look forward for such powerful leaders who could shift the existing poles and make it look a better world of highly civilized creatures.

Let's encourage these eco-leaders and new breed of leadership because they alone can create and innovate a new system which can sustain the human existence on this earth. Leadership is important and that is the need of the hour.

We Need A Positive, Constructive, Collective & Eco-Friendly Civilization!

There are some important questions to be answered. Are we humans the chosen ones among all existing creatures on this planet earth or are we just acting smart? Should we consider the other creatures, plants, minerals, water, gas and mountains etc in order to design growth plans or we humans should alone decide for them too? Have we reached to the pinnacle of human civilization? Why are we causing so much damage to the planet earth? Why are we so disconnected with the nature? Are we humans and the nature one?

These are astonishing questions and we need to find answers to these questions if we want to continue our human and other species. The planet earth is the only known habitable place to live in at the moment and it is our duty to take every measure to save it from destruction of every form.

The economic growth that government wants to achieve at the expense of the nature is a sad circumstance that could ever happen to human beings on this earth. A positive, constructive, collective and eco-friendly economic growth must be our purpose in life whereby the human civilization could continue to exist and live forever. The industrial revolutionary system must be shunned and give way to more environment friendly industries.

In my calculation, we humans may not survive the next natural catastrophe because we are too vulnerable to adopt to changing environment. We don't have any natural protective gears and we can be devastated just like dinosaurs of the past. It is the correct time that we humans must rethink about our human desire and include other species in consideration because we are not alone on the planet.

Let's protect our home, our planet earth and make a path for future generation equipped with green technology and growth so that our existence on earth should not be a story of extinction. Let's live, care, connect and feel one with the nature. For without the nature we are not humans and humans can't exist without the nature. We must change our thinking and behaviour about the nature. Let's build a positive, constructive, collective and eco-friendly civilization, a civilization which is sensible and intelligent enough to know the reality.
