Transcript of JIM ROHN: Escucha Esto y Nunca Volverás a Pensar Igual

The best advice I can give you came from a rich friend of mine who said, " If it's easy, make it easy. If it's hard, make it hard. Just get it done." Put briefly, I will do or I will die. You see? That is powerful. That could be the day that turns your life around. The world has a strange way of stepping aside when someone says, "I will do or I will die." The man says, "I am going to climb the mountain. I've been told it is very high, distant, rocky, too difficult. It has never been done before, but it is my mountain. I will climb it. Very soon you will see me waving from the top or dead on the slope because I am not coming back."

Two of the most powerful words in the language, "I will." Benjamin Disraeli once said, "Nothing can resist the human will that is willing to stake even its own existence to achieve its purpose." If you quit, you lose automatically. They don't put it to a vote. You lose automatically when you quit. Everything you don't use, you lose. Lack of use causes loss. Ambition that is not used decays. Strong feelings that are not used diminish.

Faith that is not used decreases. It is a law. Everything you don't employ, you lose. Promise yourself that you will never give up. I asked the kids how long a baby should try to learn to walk . How long would you give an average baby before you give up on them? How long? Look, any mother in the world would say, "Are you crazy? My baby will keep trying until they learn to walk." What a magical formula. Now I will show you what activates all emotions to get into action and produce results. Action . Finally, you must do something about how you feel. Commit an act that says, "I have had enough." And what you have had enough of can be small or big, the day that you can say, "I have had enough." And maybe it is not the day it ends, but the day it begins. I've had enough of lying and being broke. The man has finally had enough of mediocrity. He has had enough of being a loser, of those horrible and sickening feelings inside, knowing his wife is in the supermarket looking at two cans of beans, one 37 cents and the

other 39 cents. And the man sick inside knows that his wife is going to buy the 37-cent can and she doesn't even like the brand. Just to save two cents. The man who is sick on the inside finally says, "I've had enough. Being on my knees in the dust looking for coins. We are not going to live like this anymore ." Today could be the day to turn your life around, the day you can say, "I've had enough. Make sure you always have an action plan that matches your desires. Otherwise, they will always just be wishes. You may not be able to do everything you discover, but you should discover everything you can do.

Jesus, the master teacher, said," Don't just listen. Be doers. The world admires those who do. "Another biblical phrase says," Faith without action is useless. Nowadays some people are very big on affirmations. You have to be careful. There is a very fine line between faith and foolishness. The best hint I can give you about affirmations is affirmation without discipline. It is the beginning of delusion. And there is nothing worse than delusion. The guy keeps walking west looking for the sunrise. I mean, delusion is a bad thing. However, affirmation with discipline can bring the most spectacular results. Let me give you four questions to take home with you.

These are called questions to ponder. The first is one of the great questions of the world. Why? Why should you try? Why read so many books? Why go so far? Why earn so much? Why share so much? Why learn all of that? Why get up so early? Why push yourself so hard? Why aim for all of that? Good question. Why ? One of the best answers to the why is the second question. Why not? What else are you going to do with your life? Why not see how many books you can read?

How far can you go? How much can you earn? How many friends can you make? How much personality can you develop? What influence can you have? How many things can you achieve? How far can you get? And what can you see? Why not you have to stay here until you leave? Why not? The third question is, why not you ? Why not you? Some people have done so well that they can go, they can see it all, they can do it, they can be there.

Why not you? Some people have done incredible things starting with very little. They can have it, they can enjoy it. Why not you? Why not you contemplating the morning mist rising over the mountains of Scotland, exploring the mysteries of Spain, soaking up history in London? Why not you? You have to soak in an Arizona sunset. You have to see the world, you have to read the books, you have to take on projects, you have to get involved in commerce, love, travel, and experiences. You have to do it all, why not you? You have to know the results that come from splendid discipline.

There is nothing like the view from the top. And the final question is, why not now? Don't put off your best future any longer. Get to work tomorrow with new vigor. Get new books. Ask new questions . Set new goals. Get yourself a new journal. Start your project journal. Set an action plan in motion. Read a little more. Start making changes. Have conversations. Make contacts and do it now. And if you do, I have a feeling that one of these days we will hear your story. My final comment would be, ask for God's help. If you'll allow a personal comment, human beings are unique, but we could use a little help.

But you have to do your part, that is what we have talked about tonight. Do your part and I believe God will do His . It is a two-way street. You have made this a splendid evening and I want to wish you the best. I hope to see you on the weekend. Make sure we get the little white paper and let's keep in touch. I wish you the very best. Good night. God bless you. Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate it. Thank you.
