Idaho Farm boy to Beverly Hills!

Most people have never heard of John Earl Shoaf, who is that ?  Well I bet you have heard of Jim Rohm if you  have been in sales for any length of time your manager has recommended or placed into your hands literature of CDs  by him.  Jim was reponsible for mentoring some of the greatest entrepeneurs of  our time, including Mark Victor Hansen, Tony Robbins, and many others.

He started out as farm boy in rural Idaho. He  worked as a clerk and at  25 wanted more.. one day he went and heard a speaker named John  Earl Roaf. This man, Roaf, from very humble beginnings himself rose to Executive  Vice President of a company selling nutritional products. Jim applied everything he had been taught and went from being a average worker to a millionaire in six short years, by the time he was 31 he  was well on his way to  a new career and new opportunities.

He published "The Five Missing Pieces of Lifes Puzzle" and many other works. Check outjimrohm.com and you will find an abundance of helps.  Due to his early success as a motivational speaker and  promoting himself as "Idaho farm boy moves to Beverly Hills"  he was invited to speak at luncheon and seminars all over the country... and a new career was born. He was one of the founding fathers of the success-self help movement.

Many thousands maybe millions have benefited from his ideas and story. The reason for his success early on was  focus. Focus is the driver that made him unique and stand out.  I say to you the same thing and to me as well. The key to your success in life will be your focus.  While many of us tend to shift from one idea to another the ones that really get ahead are the ones that lock down on good thing (objective) and bear down on it to its completion.
