Great book, contain lots of insight and philosophy which anyone needs to become successful.
My learning from the book -
• Be strong but not rude.
• Be kind but not weak.
• Be bold but not a bully.
• Be thoughtful but not lazy.
• Be humble but not timid.
• Be proud but not arrogant.
• Use humor but not folly.
• Work with people who deserve it, not the people who need it.
• Show people how to deserve it.
• Reward people for small steps of progress.
• See people as they are and share with them what you see.
• See people better than they are and see things that don’t exist.
• Have faith.
• Let your people borrow your vision until they can see for themselves.
• Finally, all leaders must understand the fact of good and evil.
- You can’t afford the productivity of some people.
- Today I am a wealthy man because of my heritage.
- I am also a wealthy man because of my experiences.
- I am wealthy because of my knowledge.
- I am wealthy because of my future.
- I am wealthy because of my friends.
- I am wealthy because of love.
- In the end it is better to live in a tent with someone you love than in a mansion on your own. The greatest gift is love. The price tag on that is immeasurable.
- Let others live small lives but not you.
- There is an ancient promise that if you work on your gifts they will make a place for you.
- Work on your gifts, and you will get invitation to places you never dreamed about, places that will awe you.

At the very least, it makes you think about yourself! If you have been blaming external and uncontrollable circumstances so far for not being able to achieve your dreams, this book is gonna hit you hard! The only spoiler is that the author is not telling you anything new, neither is he giving any new perspective on those age-old truths. Easy and quick read though.

Simple and straight forward. I've always loved Jim Rohn's lectures and I found many of the ideas written in this book.
I was a bit suprised to find some of his frequeny mentioned ideas and stories written in a different context. It just means same story can be interpreted in many ways.

Quyển này đọc xong lúc 11 giờ 50 phút ngày 31/3/2025.
Mình cảm nhận được những thay đổi bên trong: nhận thức, suy nghĩ lẫn trong hành động của chính mình sau khi đọc quyển sách này. Có rất nhiều góc nhìn mới (ít nhất đối với mình) với lời văn xúc tích trong những câu truyền động lực, tác giả khiến mình cảm giác rất "ồ quao" và khiến mình phải hành động, phải làm cái gì đó.
Đôi lúc có một số đoạn mình phải đọc đi đọc lại nhiều lần, mình không biết do bản dịch hay do tác giả nhưng lời văn bị nhập nhằng gây cảm giác khó hiểu và rối rắm một xíu. Nhưng vẫn 5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐vì mình thích cuốn nì kekekeke

I don't think I've ever read any book which has inspired me more than this one. It's just like that if the words resonates with me when it comes to this book. This is the first book which I've read about self improvement and It just showed me everything that is wrong with me, everything which I've been doing wrong without even knowing the consequences of them. I'm just glad that I stumbled upon this masterpiece which really helped me a great deal. Do read this book and try to apply the knowledge of it in your life. Have a great one.

In this publication, "The Keys to Success", Jim Rohn showed the common challenges for most business executives or entrepreneurs while aiming to achieve their desired result. Alongside with that, Jim Rohn discussed how executives or entrepreneurs can apply for themselves in order to accomplish what they wish for and reach success instead of failing. Therefore, I think this publication is interesting and worthwhile for most business executives and entrepreneurs in the modern age.

Better to be prepared for an opportunity than to have an opportunity and not be prepared.
