The Seasons of Life
by Jim Rohn
Rohn's most literary book: life as winter, spring, summer and fall, and the discipline appropriate to each. Winters come; you cannot change the season, only yourself. It is short and the metaphor carries more weight than it should.
Read it if…
you are in a hard season and want a framework for enduring it.
Skip it if…
you want practical steps; it is almost entirely philosophy.
Three things you will actually use
- Do not wish for an easier winter; wish for better skills.
- Plant in spring or beg in fall.
- Seasons change; you decide whether you do.
Do this first
Name your current season and write what the book says the work of that season is.
Our verdict
Four seasons, one discipline.
