5 Skills (Abilities) to succeed in Life
(sharing learnings from Jim Rohn)
Each day is, a mosaic of Life. Don’t waste it, use it to add to your worth, wealth and equity of mind.
1. Ability to ABSORB, soak in like a sponge. It’s very easy in today’s distracted times, to be preoccupied, to daydream.
Wherever you are, to be there, is, a gift. To be like a movie projector, not be so immersed in the Present as to not miss anything.
Life is a Gift – to take in, reflect understand and express whatever Life has to teach you each Day.
To take everything in. Don’t go through the day, learn to get from the day.
2. Ability to RESPOND, Skill to affect what you see. Success is not knowledge. Success is how you can emotionally experience Life. Let Sadness make you sad. Happiness make you happy. Difficult make you feel the difficulty.
Take time to reflect, to make the past more valuable. Enhance your life with color, review decisions, relive feelings. Get up every morning learning from your Past to live better in the Future. Make the most of your past, to invest in your next activity and conversation.
3.Ability to REFLECT on your knowledge and experience. Make the past more valuable. Go back every day and think through the day you’ve just been through.
The books you read, the things you learn, become your values.
Ideas put into Action become your Values.
4. Ability to take Disciplined ACTION on your knowledge. Disciplined Action is the best way to take you from where you are to where you want to be. Ideas put into Action become Values.
Ten years from now, you’ll arrive but where? Now is the time to decide.
5. Ability to Share – an unique human quality. The paradox of sharing is that it does not diminish anything; it creates more capacity to receive.
The ability to communicate a good message well, to the right audience. Have something good to say.
John F Kennedy is known to have said Churchill had theunique ability to take the power of knowledge and send it to war.
What you share is the tip of the iceberg the tip of what you know.
Words have power, backed by love, empathy, courage, authenticity.
Sharing knowledge, a book, an idea makes a difference to you and to others. What you pour out, creates mote capacity to receive success, wealth, value.
When somebody shares, everybody wins!!
