VERY well said Cheri. And I do have more..lol

Hi Tim, I understand. I hope my choice of words didn't convey any negative feelings about the author. Jim Rohn is highly recommended in the motivational industry. As I said, I have not read one of his books but I do a lot of reading online and I see a lot of recycle material. Are you familiar with Ken Blanchard Companies ? Jack

Hello Tim, What a great excerpt! This process maybe simple but not simplistic, it takes work and commitment to oneself but in the end it is us that most benefits from our own growth. And how true it is to have minor errors in judgement that will make life miserable in the future, it is only through the sharing of information and the subsequent reading of such material that one can change, it is sad when others do not want to see change nor want to make changes in their life. Thanks for sharing, Ally

Hi Jack. Not to worry. I didn't take anything negative from your post. Ken Blanchard - author of "One minute Manager"? I have read some of his material and likely have some examples of his writings on my workplace computer somewhere. He is more of a corporate management consultant/coach though wouldn't you say? At least that's my recollection. Tim

Hi Tim, Yes, I agree inregards to Ken Blanchard. The company co-authors a lot of quick read books with such authors as John Carlos, Alan Randolph, Don Schula, Sheldon Bowles, Dick Lyles, to name a few that I read. Cheri, I always appreciate your insight. The simplest of words and action have given me some of my greatest returns. An enlightening forum indeed. Thanks to you Tim as well as your contributors. Jack
