Service to Many Leads to Greatness
Service to many leads to greatness. Some people are interested in this. Some people are not. Somebody says, “Best I can do is take care of myself”. That’s OK, but it does not lead to greatness. Another says, “I’ve got enough bills of my own. I don’t need to take care of another person’s bills.” That’s OK, but it does not lead to greatness. Greatness is helping people pay their bills. You forget about yours! Because if you help enough people pay their bills, yours disappear. If you help people with problems, then your problems disappear.
The Master Teacher taught that the key to greatness is finding a way. Lots of people want to serve many people but they do not have a way. What is exciting about Success University is that it provides a way. Whether you use it or not is up to you. Whether you cash it in or not is up to you. Whether you make a fortune or just a little is all up to you. Each person’s ambition is different in this level marketing plan where the product is education. Each person’s philosophy is different. Whatever your ambition level, now you have the means. What you have to do is to serve as many people as you would like to.
Here is the exciting part. You can directly and indirectly affect the lives of dozens of people. Some of you are going to directly and indirectly affect the lives of hundreds of people. And some of you, if you wish, are going to directly and indirectly affect the lives of thousands of people. And the pay is accordingly. If you affect a few you get paid accordingly. If you affect many, you get paid accordingly.
The secret is found in the Bible. Service to many leads to greatness. John Kennedy said, “Don’t ask what the people can do for you. Don’t ask what the country can do for you. Don’t ask what the government can do for you.” That is not how you get rich. That is not how you have high self esteem. That is not how you get trophies to put on the mantle piece. Asking what the people can do for you. ” Don’t ask what the people can do for you. But ask what could I do for my country.” And the country means people. What can I do for the people?
I like trophies. I like high self esteem. I would even like to make a fortune. What can I do for my people? Can I directly or indirectly affect the lives of thousands. If you participate in the programs we have to offer, the answer is YES.
Zig Ziglar put it very frankly. “Money isn’t everything but it ranks right up there with oxygen”. Here is another – “If you help enough people get what they want, you can have everything you want.” Wanting everything you want we call ’self interest’. It is OK to have self interest if you do it in a positive way, by helping enough people get what they want. In that way you can have everything you want.

Good afternoon. I was actually surfing the web to find the part of the Bible which Jim Rohn is referring to in the lesson you have on your page. Do you know where I can find the lesson……………find a way to serve the many?
Thanks and keep up the great work.

Hi Craig
This principle comes from Jesus’ comments to His disciples in Matthew 20:25-28:- Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave—just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” (NIV)
Jesus is the greatest. To follow His example, I’m so excited I’ve found a way to help many people achieve success.
Thanks for your encouragement

You stole that whole quote from Jim Rome. I have the CD right here I was just listening to it yesterday. You have got to give credit where credit is due, and I think you are a fraud.

Yes the whole passage above is taken directly from Jim Rohn’s “Building your Network Marketing Business.” I’ve listened to that CD more than 100 times, and the wordage above is almost verbatim Jim Rohn. It is curious that the Author doesn’t state that this passage is Jim Rohn’s material, but I will stop short of calling the author a fraud and give him the benefit of the doubt so to speak. Perhaps the acknowledgment is stated elsewhere in the text.

Wow, I am so glad that there are others out there that love Jim Rohn. I do and yes one of my ‘mentors’ is Jim Rohn who I acknowledge as such in earlier blogs. I applied Jim Rohn’s CD on Network Marketing for my own experience just as he applied Jesus counsel on greatness being achieved by serving others. Yes I will give credit where credit is due. Please read the entire site to appreciate I claim nothing as my own. I use Jim Rohns for my own learning. I believe that this is what this great man is all about ‘Serving others’

Hi, my name is Alex, and I am from SERBIA.
I was also surfing the web to find the part of the Bible which Jim Rohn is referring to.
Just to confirm that this is in fact quote from Jim Rohn “Building your Network Marketing Business”.
I’ve also listened to that lessons so times, so I think it will be nice to quote somewhere that those are mr. Rohn words.

Not citing is plagiarism. Your name at the bottom is also a claim. Doesn’t the same Rohn CD talk something about what honesty is? Get lost.
