12 Unforgettable Quotes by Jim Rohn

Many years ago one of my early mentors, Jim Rohn taught me the importance of working on myself: “To have more we must first become more.”

It's the first time I heard about personal development and I've continued on that path ever since.

SUCCESS celebrates and remembers the life of Jim Rohn with 10 of his most beloved quotes:
