What's holding you back from succeeding in your dreams? Jim Rohn, a leading expert in personal achievement and goal setting, says that neglect might be holding you back.

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.

While his friends neglected to set goals, Jim Rohn carefully cultivated his goals.

While his friends neglected to read books to improve their thinking, Jim Rohn took care of his mind and his positive thinking by filling his mind with the motivational words of the book he carefully chose.

There are enough opportunities, money, education, and jobs for everyone. There's no shortage. Don't blame you lack of success of some external factor. You know the old saying, "The buck stops here." If you're not achieving the kind of success that you want in your like, take ownership of it.

Don't be like so many folks who neglect. Stop the neglect now. You're more than mediocre.

We neglect to live our lives. We neglect to surround ourselves with people who will help us succeed. We neglect to set meaningful goals and then to strive to achieve them. We neglect to work on our attitudes. We neglect...

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

Neglect actually affects us on a spiritual and mental level. We lose confidence in ourselves. Our attitudes turn negative. We let down the people we love most. We doubt we can succeed. We doubt our talents. We lose ourselves.

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.
