I have not had the privilege to meet him in person, but my life is richer just through his audios, videos, articles and quotes that I have access to. I have not scratched the surface yet in the vast vaults of knowledge, insight and wisdom.
His down-to-earth-simplicity approach to the challenges that we all face every day is something that caught my attention first. Add to this a wealth of wisdom attained by an eternal scholar of life, and you will have no choice to admire this man and learn from his giving spirit.
Just as in this video below, his voice and words always leave me:
Inspired - There is no shame in falling down
- The glory is in getting up and going on.
Challenged - to reach higher - to go back and try again.
Motivated - Because I can - think of the person I will become when achieving my dream.
Compassion - Jim fondly closed his programs with the following sentiments: “I go with you in all the experience that we’ve had. But I promise you this as we leave here: I will not leave you behind. I’ll take you with me in my thoughts and in my heart.”
