Zig Ziglar

You cannot tailor-make the situations in life but you can tailor-make the attitudes to fit those situations.

With integrity, you have nothing to fear, since you have nothing to hide. With integrity, you will do the right thing, so you will have no guilt.

Ability can take you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there.

I’ve got to confess I’m a pragmatic optimist myself.

Make failure your teacher, not your undertaker.

Look back in forgiveness, forward in hope, down in compassion, and up with gratitude.

Sometimes if you’re lucky someone comes into your life who’ll take up a place in your heart no one else can fill.

Money isn’t the most important thing in life, but it’s reasonably close to oxygen on the ‘gotta have it’ scale.

If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them.

One does not always do the best there is. One does the best one can. – Catherine the Great

Every man loves what he is good at.

If you can eliminate all the other choices, the remaining choice, no matter how improbable, is the answer.

We are the creative force of our life, and through our own decisions rather than our conditions, if we carefully learn to do certain things, we can accomplish those goals.

The old rules are crumbling and nobody knows what the new rules are. So make up your own rules.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

It’s a blip, not a catastrophe.

Dream as if you’ll live forever. Live as if you’ll die today.

Last but not least, I would say you should have big dreams, full dreams, not half dreams. You know, it’s very simple. You can’t put a large box in a small box. Well, you cannot put a full life in a small dream box.

Those who believe they can move mountains, do. Those who believe they can’t, cannot. Belief triggers the power to do.

Courage is on display every day, and only the courageous wring the most out of life.

When you stop chasing the wrong things you give the right things a chance to catch you.
