Jim Rohn Quotes

You have to decide if you're going to wilt like a daisy or if you're just going to go forward and live the life that you've been granted.

There are really only two ways to approach life - as victim or as gallant fighter - and you must decide if you want to act or react, deal your own cards or play with a stacked deck. And if you don't decide which way to play with life, it always plays with you.

We are both burdened and blessed by the great responsibility of the will - the power of choice. Our future is determined, in large part, by the choices we make now. We cannot always control our circumstances, but we can and do choose our response to whatever arises. Reclaiming the power of choice, we find the courage to live fully in the world.

If I stay. If I live. It's up to me.

The choice is yours. You hold the tiller. You can steer the course you choose in the direction of where you want to be - today, tomorrow, or in a distant time to come.

Almost every important choice in our lives is really just an expression of hope.

I never take counsel of my fears.

Anyone can hide. Facing up to things, working through them, that's what makes you strong.

Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage, and confidence.

It takes courage not only to make decisions, but to live with those decisions afterward

I am not a product of my circumstances. I am a product of my decisions.

Like everything in life, I just had to decide what to do with what I was given.

Life is filled with difficult decisions, he thought. And winners are those who make them.

As you go along your own road in life, you will, if you aim high enough, also meet resistance... But no matter how tough the opposition may seem, have courage still and persevere.

The small day-to-day decisions will determine the course of your lives.

Resistance is a powerful motivator precisely because it enables us to fulfill our longing to achieve our goals while letting us boldly recognize and name the obstacles to those achievements.

What matters is not how well you can avoid trouble, but how you cope with trouble when it comes.

Remember, it's not conditions but decisions that determine our lives.

Your biography is not your destiny, your decisions are.

Most people have turned their solutions toward what is easy and toward the easiest side of the easy; but it is clear that we must trust in what is difficult; everything alive trusts in it.

The miracle isn't that I finished. The miracle is that I had the courage to start.

The sufferings that fate inflicts on us should be borne with patience, what enemies inflict with manly courage.

You may not control life's circumstances, but getting to be the author of your life means getting to control what you do with them.

Everything tells me that I am about to make a wrong decision, but making mistakes is just part of life. What does the world want of me? Does it want me to take no risks, to go back to where I came from because I didn't have the courage to say "yes" to life?

When on the brink of complete discouragement, success is discerning that...the line between failure and success is so fine that often a single extra effort is all that is needed to bring victory out of defeat.
