Zig Ziglar

If you want to earn more, learn more.

When you are tough on yourself, life is going to be infinitely easier on you.

If you learn from defeat, you haven’t really lost.

Honesty and integrity are by far the most important assets of an entrepreneur.

He climbs highest who helps another up.

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

Most people work just hard enough not to get fired and get paid just enough money not to quit.

If people knew how hard I had to work to gain my mastery, it wouldn’t seem so wonderful at all.

If you want to be rich… don’t allow yourself the luxury of excuses.

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.

Be patient with yourself. Self-growth is tender; it’s holy ground. There’s no greater investment.

Don’t be trapped by dogma-which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.

There is nothing so easy but that it becomes difficult when you do it reluctantly.

There are no guarantees, but being ready sure beats being taken by surprise.

Originality is the fine art of remembering what you hear but forgetting where you heard it.

You miss 100 percent of the shots you never take.

Fear is the great extinguisher of dreams… Conversely, it can be your best mentor and source of motivation.

Decide what you want, and decide what you are willing to exchange for it. Establish your priorities and go to work.

People are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves. That is why they remain bound.

You measure the size of the accomplishment by the obstacles you had to overcome to reach your goals.

It is thrifty to prepare today for the wants of tomorrow.
