This is one of my favorite video clips of Jim:

I am truly saddened to hear of Jim Rohn’s death.  I’ve studied his material for several years now and learned a lot about life and myself.  Jim was one of the first personal development teachers that I found when I started my studies.  I’m sure his material has inspired many thousands of other just as it has me.

After listening too many of his CD’s over a period of time, I had an opportunity to meet Mr. Rohn in person (in Dallas) about two years ago during a seminar which was attended by a relatively small group of people.  I made it a point to go up before the seminar and introduce myself and ask for his autograph in a couple of copies of Twelve Pillars….a book that he co-authored with Chis Widener.  Our conversation was brief but very memorable.

Jim’s influence and personal insight has helped me build a business that also helps others.  As I think of Jim and listen to his timeless audios, I’m reminded what Jim said when asked why he kept holding seminars, traveling, and speaking at his age, “To leave a legacy”.  And that, too, is my goal to leave a legacy, not only to this generation, but generations to come.

Jim you will be missed!

Warmly,

Bob Thomason
