Jim Rohn, one of the country's leading experts on success and personal development, stated that the one reason why people don't succeed is 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.

Jim Rohn succeeded at an early age, 31. While most of his friends struggled, Jim Rohn became a millionaire. He says that he took care of what others neglected. He further says that it was early for him to do.

Jim took care of listening to successful people.

Jim Rohn set goals. His friends neglected to put any goals down.

Jim Rohn read good books to improve his intellect and his attitude. His friends neglected to pick up the right kinds of books, or any books at all.

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.

So why do we fail? Why do we live mediocre lives? Because 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.

Neglect will tear you down. Every time you neglect something in your life, you open your soul to decay. Eventually, you won't recognize the person you've become.

Neglect affects our spirit. We lose faith in ourselves. Our self-esteem plummets. Our attitudes become decidedly negative. People around us are affected as well. We often let these people down. We lose confidence in our abilities. In our ability to succeed.

If you want to break the cycle of neglect in your life, you need to get in the habit of action. "Just do it," like the old Nike ads admonished. Study the habits of successful people. Do what they do.

When you do something, anything, you will rid yourself of neglect.
