Customer Reviews

A great place to start
At the moment I am listening to this double cd around four times a week (for three weeks now), and I plan to carry on doing so for a good bit longer. WHY? - because there is a lot in there that I need to hear.
The author talks eloquently and entertaingly about how his life was turned around through being mentored as a young man, by an older, successful businessman. He then imparts much of the essentials of what he has learnt to be the best and most successful way to live.
Its simple, inspiring, refreshing and empowering. Much revolves around the principle of developing your skills and effectiveness, instead of blaming conditions.
If you want to make a success of your life - get this and listen to it regularly, because it lays good foundations for establishing a much better life.

Brilliant!!!
This CD is is without doubt one of the best things I have ever bought. Jim Rohn delivers his philosophy with humour and style, I find myself quoting him to make my boyfriend laugh, and I lend the CD to those that are open minded enough to learn.

This CD is truely a great buy.

NOTE: track 1 is a cheesy introduction, but that is the only down side... and its easy to skip past.

Great 2-CD set, with autobiographical content
If you work hard on your job, you will have a career. If you work hard on your life, you will have a fortune...

They are the words that come through from the CD set "The Art of Exceptional Living" by Jim Rohn. This two CD set is a fantastic way to introduce yourself to the work of Rohn, and to learn from the lessons that he had learned himself.

Much of the work is autobiographical, however this is no bad thing. Rohn talks about the difficult times in his life, earning $57 and there being more month than money at the age of twenty five. He then shows the main change that was required to break free from this vicious cycle - the change in blame - moving from an external blame mentality to an internal blame mentality.

He also demonstrates the benefits of focusing on enhanced skills, not reduced problems.

Another great section of this CD is the emphasis put on personal development. The cynic in me wonders whether this is partially self promotion of his other works, however despite this I completely agree with his sentiments that everybody should have a library including personal and business development materials, together with books and journals that enhance the mind and spirit.

This is a great CD set at a very low cost, that I would recommend is added to any personal development collection.
