Surely there's a better video to attach to this, than a head getting the fuck smashed out of it.

You know...all these years I've listened to motivational speeches but none ever hit me as hard as Jim, and I'm wondering why am I discovering Jim now?

Tbh I thought this was a stoic quote. I think I’ve even read it was Socrates. Never heard it attributed to either of these two

Uhhh this is not by Jim Rohn… but of Alexis Carrel in the late 18th century when Stoicism was on the rise.

Was it Alexis or Jim?? Unless both made this quote simultaneously and shared the trademark

If Jim said that I think he would have pointed out who said it first. He was a proponent of self education after all.

The guy who thought of this was a virgin because when it comes to making a mini me I don't call it suffering.

Thanks a lot for everyone pointing out that this was by Alexis Carrel (as stated in the title :D)!

Why is the quote attributed to two different people?
