The Set of The Sail

One of the best pieces of advice I ever got was from Jim Rohn in an audio program called “The Art of Exceptional Living.”

In that audio he told me,

“the major determining factor in how your life turns out is your philosophy.

Your philosophy, he said, is like the set of the sail.

Some people do so little thinking, they don’t even have their sail up.”

Your philosophy is not a composition of the books your read and the ideas you hear,

rather, it’s the product of your conclusions and life decisions based on the thinking you’ve done relating to those things.

Without making an active decision to continually sculpt, mold and shape a better philosophy, it’s easy and natural to become a victim of hidden slavery.

Is your philosophy sailing you to a beautiful island paradise where you can enjoy peace, prosperity and abundance?

If not, a change can be made.

A better sail can be trimmed.

Here are a few great places to start.
