More From Jim Rohn

Human beings are the only creatures who have the ability to write down their goals and design their future. and here is why most of us don't. we're trapped either by regret of the past or the routine of the present.

When we understand that we are a human race, what affects you affects me, what affects her affects you and so on and so on, then we'll look at this thing [hiv/aids] for what it really is. it's a disease that's out to kill all of us. what will make it continue is our prejudices, our ideas about it, and the fact that we don't look at ourselves as one giant community.

Here is the trap you are in.... and it's not my trap—i haven't trapped you. because abortions are illegal, women who need and want them have no choice in the matter, and you—because you know how to perform them—have no choice, either. what has been violated here is your freedom of choice, and every woman's freedom of choice, too. if abortion was legal, a woman would have a choice—and so would you. you could feel free not to do it because someone else would. but the way it is, you're trapped. women are trapped. women are victims, and so are you.

No thought about the past or future can pull you away from your present peace and joy. the universe exists in this present moment. no desire can pull you away from this present peace, not even the desire to become a buddha or the desire to save all beings. know that to become a buddha and to save all beings can only be realized on the foundation of the pure peace of the present moment.
Peace Future Past
Seventy-five years. that's how much time you get if you're lucky. seventy-five years. seventy-five winters, seventy-five springtimes, seventy-five summers, and seventy-five autumns. when you look at it like that, it's not a lot of time, is it? don't waste them. get your head out of the rat race and forget about the superficial things that pre-occupy your existence and get back to what's important now.

Hinduism is a living organism liable to growth and decay subject to the laws of nature. one and indivisible at the root, it has grown into a vast tree with innumerable branches. the changes in the season affect it. it has its autumn and its summer, its winter and its spring. it is, and is not, based on scriptures. it does not derive its authority from one book. non violence has found the highest expression and application in hinduism.
