Your Actions Speak Louder Than Your Ambitions | Jim Rohn Motivation

There is something almost nobody does that costs almost nothing and produces almost everything: getting up earlier than the people you compete with. That's the whole thing. Not a system. Not a philosophy. Not a program you order in the mail. Set your alarm earlier than they set theirs, and use those hours for something that matters.Uploaded 12-07-26You want to know why one man builds something extraordinary while working a regular job, and the man sitting next to him at the same job builds nothing? Nine times out of ten, one of them was up at 5:30 and the other was up at 7:30. That's the difference. Two hours a day, for years.The people you are competing with — for the job, the promotion, the life you want — most of them are still asleep at six in the morning. Nobody is fighting you for the hours between five and seven. The world is quiet, the phone doesn't ring, nobody wants anything from you. The most useful stretch of time available to a working adult is sitting there every single morning, and almost nobody takes it.This seminar covers what those hours are actually worth, the one discipline that makes early rising stick, and the story of a man named Bill Roland who got up at five for six months and had absolutely nothing to show for it.CHAPTERS0:00 Nobody Is Fighting You for 5 AM2:14 Do the Math: 5,000 Hours4:15 Why a Morning Hour Beats an Afternoon Hour5:52 Waking Up Early Isn't the Trick8:12 Bill Roland and the Crossword Puzzles12:31 Aim the Hours at One Thing13:15 Nobody Can See You Doing It15:20 What Tomorrow Morning Looks LikeTHE TRADE NOBODY WANTS TO MAKEMost people who try this set the alarm for 5:30, stay up until midnight watching television, get up exhausted, and quit by the third day. Then they tell themselves early rising is not for them. Here is the secret: waking up early isn't the trick. Going to bed early is the trick. You cannot get the morning without giving up the evening — there is no way around it. You are trading three hours of tired evening time, when you are already half dead, for two hours of sharp morning time when your mind is at its best. It is the best trade you will ever get on a swap of hours. Fix the bedtime and the waking up takes care of itself.WHAT THE HOURS ARE FORBill Roland got up at five in the morning for six months, religiously — and had nothing to show for it. He made coffee. He read the paper. He walked around the block. He did crosswords. He had been telling people he was going to write a novel since he was twenty-eight, and he had two free hours every morning and was spending them on puzzles. A friend sat him down and asked one question: a jump on what? Bill went home, bought a stack of legal pads, and starting Monday wrote for ninety minutes before anything else. Two years later he had a finished novel. The getting up early was never the answer. The getting up early, aimed at one specific thing with a name and a shape and a finish line, was the answer.WHAT TO DO TONIGHTGo to bed at 9:30 — not eleven, not 10:30. Set the alarm for 5:30, or six if five feels like too much, but not seven; seven is when everyone else gets up. When the alarm goes off, you get up. No negotiating, no snooze — the negotiation happened last night when you set it. Sit down with whatever you need for the one thing you decided the mornings are for, and start. Not coffee first. Not the paper first. The work first. Ninety minutes, every morning, for two years. Then look up and see what you have built.—Inspired by the teachings of Jim Rohn.#JimRohn #Motivation #Discipline #MorningRoutine #SelfDiscipline Learn more about your ad choices.
