Jim Rohn's 'Ant Philosophy'

The late Jim Rohn is one of my heroes.  He was excellent at everything he did, and what he did was tell stories.  They're short and worth reading.  I've always like this one: 

"Over the years I've been teaching kids about a simple but powerful concept - the ant philosophy.  I think everybody should study ants. They have an amazing four-part philosophy, and here is the first part: ants never quit

That's a good philosophy. If they're headed somewhere and you try to stop them, they'll look for another way. They'll climb over, they'll climb under, they'll climb around. They keep looking for another way. What a neat philosophy, to never quit looking for a way to get where you're supposed to go.

Second, ants think winter all summer. That's an important perspective. You can't be so naive as to think summer will last forever. So ants gather their winter food in the middle of summer.

The third part of the ant philosophy is that ants think summer all winter. That is so important. During the winter, ants remind themselves, “This won't last long; we'll soon be out of here.” And the first warm day, the ants are out. If it turns cold again, they'll dive back down, but then they come out the first warm day. They can't wait to get out.

And here's the last part of the ant philosophy. How much will an ant gather during the summer to prepare for the winter? All he possibly can. What an incredible philosophy, the “all–you–possibly–can” philosophy.

Wow, what a great philosophy to have - the ant philosophy. Never give up, look ahead, stay positive and do all you can."  ~Jim Rohn
