Zig Ziglar

A plan is always successful if the plan is good.

When you catch a glimpse of your potential, that’s when passion is born.

You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.

Men of genius are admired, men of wealth are envied, men of power are feared, but only men of character are trusted.

Rich people have small TVs and big libraries, and poor people have small libraries and big TVs.

True success has more components than one sentence or idea can contain.

In God we trust; all others bring data.

Excessive fear and self-doubt that were the greatest detractors of personal genius.

All progress takes place outside the comfort zone.

Each problem that I solved became a rule which served afterwards to solve other problems.

I’ve seen more people fail because of liquor and leverage – leverage being borrowed money. You really don’t need leverage in this world much. If you’re smart, you’re going to make a lot of money without borrowing.

Our only limitations are those we set up in our own minds.

You can make just about anything of your life-anything you will believe or will visualize, anything you will pray for and work for. Look deeply into your mind. Amazing wonders are there. Whatever the situation may be, you can improve it.

Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude.

Never, ever give up. There will be times in your life you’ll want to quit, you’ll want to go home, you’ll want to go home perhaps to that wonderful mother that’s sitting back there watching you and say, ‘Mom, I can’t do it. I can’t do it.’ Just never quit. Go back home and tell mom, dad, ‘I can do it, I can do it. I will do it.’ You’re going to be successful.

Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

Don’t let life discourage you; everyone who got where he is had to begin where he was.

If you don’t see yourself as a winner, then you cannot perform as a winner.

You’ve got to be before you can do and do before you can have.

It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation.

What you can do, or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.
