➤➤Transcript (Partial):
Mr. Shoaff put it to me this way—he said, “Jim, if you had enough reasons you could do the most incredible things.” I never forgot how he put that. If you have enough reasons. See reasons will change your whole life. Mr. Shoaff said to me, he said, “Mr. Rohn, I think you've got plenty of intelligence, you've got plenty of talent, you've got plenty of ability. Probably what you lack is plenty of reasons.” He said, “I don't think your current bank balance is a true indication of your level of intelligence.” I was happy to hear that. He said, “I think you're much smarter than your present bank balance indicates.” And that turned out to be true. I was much smarter. But of course my first question was: well then why isn't it bigger? And he said, “You don't have enough reasons. You've got enough intelligence, but not enough reasons.” So see, reasons can change your life. Here's what else I found out: reasons come first, answers come second. You don't get the answers to do well ‘till you get the reasons. Life has a mysterious way of hanging on to all the answers and only gives them up to the people that are inspired by reasons. So reasons make the difference in how your life works out. Now what are some of the reasons for doing well? Let's go through a quick list called “reasons for doing well”. First is personal reasons. Some people do well for recognition. Some people do well for respect. Some people do well for the way it makes them feel. They love the feeling of being a winner. Those are good reasons. I have some millionaire friends that keep working. 10, 12 hours a day making more millions. And it's not because they need the money. It's because they need the joy and the satisfaction and the pleasure that comes from being a constant winner. And see, it's not just the money anyway, it's the journey, not the money. Once in a while somebody says to me, “Boy, if I had a million dollars, I'd never work another day in my life.” That's probably why the good Lord sees to it they don't get their million, right. They’d quit! They’d quit! Okay, next is family reasons. Some people do extremely well for other people, and that's powerful. Human beings can greatly affect each other. Sometimes we will do things for somebody else we will not do for ourselves. We’re made that way. I met a man one time who said, “Mr. Rohn, to do all the things I want to do with my family around the world,” he said, “I got to have at least a quarter of a million dollars a year.” I thought incredible! Could a guy's family affect him that much? And the answer is: of course! How fortunate are the people that find themselves greatly affected by somebody for personal achievement? And we are affected. The writer of a recent song said, “If not for you, the winter would hold no spring. Couldn't hear a Robin sing. I just wouldn't have a clue if not for you.” So we can be affected. That might be one of the most stimulating reasons to do well: finding somebody. When Andrew Carnegie died—the wee little Scotsman that built the big steel industry—when he died, they opened up his desk, and in one of the desk drawers they found a slip of paper...

Imagine Jordan Peterson and Jim Rohn having a conversation about these topics, it would be the best thing ever.

To anyone reading this, I hope you live abundant and blessed lives! If you stuck in a low vibrational state, this is how I pulled myself out
1. break all addiction (weed, porn, etc)
2. meditate everyday
3. Read and increase your knowledge
4. engage in physical activity daily
5. discipline yourself with consistent habits
6. hold yourself accountable in EVERY aspect (relationships, habits, time management)
7. Eat really healthy food
As a 19 year old who has put his whole life on his head, I swear by these habits! Shit has changed my aura and life, don't let anyone tell you different. I even started a youtube channel to spread this internal knowledge we all know of, it will remind you of your purpose! Good vibes y'all ✌️

Jim Rohn a very smart man, 'The Ultimate Jim Rohn Library' on Audible is worth checking out. He is as inspirational as Jordan Peterson in my opinion.

Why do I think of Michael Scott giving a speech on The Office. On a serious note, Rohn and Peterson are nothing less than extraordinary minds.

Another word is vision/dreams. You won't bleed more than necessary without a dream.

When there is necessity you don't need a success formula.
You just do.

When I was 10 years old I discovered that money cannot buy happiness and that is when my battle the existential dilemma began. I'm not playing the same game that everyone else is playing here. Your advice is solid for most people but most people don't take advice. It's even hard for me.

You don't need reasons. Be yourself and never listen to others about what you should do. Others limit your possibilities compared with theirs, that's why they don’t believe that you can. But you can and you will.
