The Twelve Pillars

By Jim Rohn and Chris Widener

The story about Michael’s Chance Encounter with Charlie!


I had forgotten about this book until I was looking for another book on the shelf and there it was! There are 12 chapters each having a great story to further explains the below 12 points that we need to focus on more or at least I do:


1. Start Working on Yourself – “The only way things are going to change is when you change”.
2. Live a Life of Health – “You should make sure that the outside of you is a good reflection of your inside”.
3. The Gift of Relationships – “Time, effort, and imagination must be summoned constantly to keep any relationship flourishing and growing”.
4. Achieve Your Goals – “The major reason for setting a goal is for what it makes of you to accomplish”.
5. Proper Use of Time – “Every day has many opportunities, but only one best opportunity.”
6. Surround Yourself With the Best People – “Don’t join an easy crowd: you want to grow. Go where the expectations and the demands to perform are high.”
7. Be a Life-Long Leader – Formal education will make you a living. Self education will make you a fortune”.
8. All of Life is Sales – “One key to having influence with others is to have others perceive you as a person of talent and virtue.”
9. Income Seldom Exceeds Personal Development – “What you become directly influences what you get”.
10. All Communication Brings the Common Ground of Understanding – “Communication is two or more people working together to find common ground and understanding. And when they find that common ground, they are positioned to have tremendous power together.
11. The World can Always Use One More Great Leader – “To lead others to help them change their thoughts, beliefs and actions for the better.”
12. Leave a Legacy. “Live a life that will help others spiritually, intellectually, physically, financially and relationally. Live a life that serves as an example of what an exceptional life can look like”.
