The Passing of a Legend

Mr Jim Rohn, 5 Dec 2009.

America's Foremost Business Philosopher

People who don't know would ask me what the hype was all about and what is it I saw in him. "Why look up to an international, a non local, and mostly a non-muslim?" they would ask.

Well, at first I only heard about him and listened to his tapes and watched his videos. What he taught was extraordinary and for me, it meant a lot and touched on what was going on in my life. In short, it changed my way of thinking, and my life, and maybe somewhat unbelievably, strengthened my faith.

Seeing the man, live, in person gave my the confidence that this was a good man who knew what he was talking about and so from then, he became my teacher from far away. His words will always inspire me. Most of all, his belief in them. Not like a lot of speakers who give you theories, Mr Jim Rohn lived them and showed me that I can also live out my beliefs of goodness, health, wealth and bring love to all mankind and the universe.

I salute you Mr Jim Rohn,...

"I wish for you the life of wealth, health and happiness: a life of which you give to yourself the gift of patience, the virtue of reason, the value of knowledge, and the influence of faith in our own ability to dream about and achieve worthy rewards."

Mr Jim Rohn, America's Foremost Business Philosopher.
