It's the easy things in life that are the hardest...

“The things in life that are easy to do…are also the things in life that are hard to do”…one of my favorite quotes by the late Jim Rohn.  I heard Jim speak in Kelowna about 15 years ago and learned this lesson way back then.  Applying the lesson is something I am still working on today!  Take my blog for instance…it is really easy to take 15 – 20 minutes to share some insights, yet it’s been 2 months since I have written anything.  So is it easy…or is it hard? 

Jim used some examples of easy things: saving 10% of your income, donating to charity regularly, exercising 3 times a week…and how many of us consistently do these?  The long term results from paying attention to the easy things are amazing.  It’s a key success principle.  What is your number one allusive “easy thing” that you are willing to commit to consistently?  What will it do for you over time?  What goal will you achieve because of it?

Thanks Jim…15 years later and your coaching is still paying off.
