According to Jim Rohn, a leading personal development expert, most people don't succeed because of neglect.

Does that mean that the secret of success then is the opposite of neglect? The thesaurus states the antonym of neglect is to care for or to look after. But this does clear things up to much. Perhaps looking to Jim Rohn's wisdom will help us understand.

Not many folks, percentage-wise, in the world can claim to be millionaires. Jim Rohn was a millionaire at the young age of 31. While other neglected to work at the things that would make them successful, Rohn took care of those things.

Jim Rohn listened to successful people. His friends neglected to do this.

Jim took are of setting goals.

Jim took care of his mind and attitude by reading good books.

Rohn points out opportunities exist all around us. There's plenty of money in the world. There are plenty of changes at education. There are plenty of jobs out there. There are an infinite number of different types of careers to try.

Why don't we succeed? We neglect.

Don't neglect your life. Don't neglect to surround yourself with worthwhile associates. Don't neglect to set goals that ignite your passions and desires. Don't neglect your attitude. Don't neglect those around you.

Unfortunately, neglect brings us down. Just like a neglected house, the problems go beyond just the cosmetic.

Your self-confidence will wane. Your faith in yourself and others will diminish. Where you once were positive and full of dreams and hope, you will have become negative, pessimistic, and cynical.

The way to counter neglect is to take care of your dreams by acting on them. Doing something that moves you in the direction of dreams. Do not neglect the things that will move you toward your goals.

Start something now. Neglect no more. You have the chance to do something great with your life.
