We are all here... because we're not all there...

Navigating can be difficult without a mentor...

I have had some great mentors along the way... And Jim Rohn (RIP) is without a doubt the best! On several occasions in the last week I have found my self repeating Jim's philosophy and insight I was introduced to in 1989.  His style and philosophy was engaging and made you feel he was talking directly to you (even in a room of 100's).

His insight on money and direction has been ever lasting. When I heard him say, "money does two things for you... makes you more of what you already are... and gets you where your going...a little bit faster." Now that made me think... he than added, " its amazing to think you give a 20 year old millions of dollars to play a professional sport... and then you wonder why he acts like a 20 year old with millions of dollars, when he's not performing on the court/field.

Another key insight was his discussion on how to set your sail. He explains that if you left tonight, headed for the Hawaiian Islands in your 40' yacht, if your off by one degree.. you'll miss the islands by over  a 100 miles. He was insistent that to navigate, you have to do a daily check and make the adjustments necessary to stay on course. He said, "the winds of negativity, politics, family issues, and sometimes LIFE...are always going to blow. And if you don't change the set of your sail, make the adjustments needed to stay on course, you'll get blown into the rocks.

Take the time...to plan accordingly. Know what your destination is... and make the adjustments needed to sail into the harbor at Ala Wai...with a smile and heart of gratitude.
​It looks good on you!
