Be a lifelong student

"Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune." — Jim Rohn

This is one of Jim's most powerful distinctions. And one of the most misunderstood.

He wasn't against school. He wasn't against degrees. He was against the assumption that graduation means you're finished learning.

Jim dropped out of college. He was broke at 25. Then he met Earl Shoaff — and everything changed. Not because Shoaff handed him a diploma. Because Shoaff challenged him to become a student again.

The books he read after that. The seminars he attended. The notes he took. That's what built his fortune. Not the classroom — the library card.

This week we're exploring what Jim taught about the power of learning. Self-education. Daily reading. The compound effect of feeding your mind.

What are you learning right now that nobody assigned you?

I have two questions for you.

How many times have you been knocked down?
How many times did you get back up?

As long as you got up more than you went down, you’re still in the fight.

They labeled me mentally re****ed
I was knocked down.
I bought my mother a home
I got back up.

They diagnosed me with cancer
I was knocked down.
I received the Perseverance Award
From Cancer Centers of America
I got back up.

I’ve been knocked down over 52 times in 81 years.
But I got back up 53.

And I refuse to stay down.

Now tell me your number in the comments:
Knocked down __. Got back up __.
