According to Jim Rohn, a leading personal development expert, most people don't succeed because of neglect.

In order to succeed, then, we need to do the opposite of neglect. What's that? The thesaurus indicates that the opposite, or antonym, of neglect is to look after or to care for. In other words, we need to look after the things that we have neglected.

Not many folks, percentage-wise, in the world can claim to be millionaires. Jim Rohn was a millionaire at the young age of 31. While other neglected to work at the things that would make them successful, Rohn took care of those things.

Jim took care of listening to successful people.

While his friends neglected to set goals, Jim Rohn carefully cultivated his goals.

Jim Rohn read good books to improve his intellect and his attitude. His friends neglected to pick up the right kinds of books, or any books at all.

Do we have enough opportunities? Yes. Is there enough money for everybody to get their piece? Yes. Can everyone get an education? Yes. Are there enough jobs? Yes. Is there something out there that you would be good at? Of course.

Why don't we succeed? We neglect.

We neglect to try new things. We neglect to seek mentors. We neglect to ignore the naysayers. We neglect to work. We neglect to set goals. We neglect to keep a positive attitude in the face of adversity.

The problem with neglect is that it affects us, well, negatively. We suffer. Not usually in a physical way, but maybe, if you neglect to exercise and eat right.

Neglect actually affects us on a spiritual and mental level. We lose confidence in ourselves. Our attitudes turn negative. We let down the people we love most. We doubt we can succeed. We doubt our talents. We lose ourselves.

The only way to fight neglect is to do something. Act. As the old Nike saying goes, "Just Do It." I say, "Do it now."

Start something now. Neglect no more. You have the chance to do something great with your life.
