Jim Rohn

出生: September 17, 1930 – Yakima, Washington, United States

Jim Rohn was an American author, entrepreneur, and motivational speaker renowned for his influence in **personal development**, **leadership**, and **success philosophy**. He authored over 25 books—including “7 Strategies for Wealth & Happiness” and “The Art of Exceptional Living”—and delivered more than 6,000 seminars, reaching millions and shaping a generation of self-improvement leaders.

传记与作者历程

Emanuel James Rohn, widely known as Jim Rohn, was born on September 17, 1930, in Yakima, Washington, and raised as an only child on a modest farm in Caldwell, Idaho. The demanding rhythms of farm life instilled in him a durable work ethic that would later underpin his philosophy on personal achievement. After attending college for a brief period, Rohn left to work as a human resource manager at Sears before a pivotal turning point: being inspired by John Earl Shoaff during a lecture on success. This encounter launched Rohn into the world of direct sales, first at AbundaVita, and then Nutri-Bio, where Shoaff became his mentor and Rohn achieved considerable success managing a large team.
