Zig Ziglar

Many people who want to be great aren’t willing to do the work to make it possible!

To be candid, some people have given positive thinking a bad name. I can’t stand to hear some gung-ho individual say that with positive thinking you can just do ‘anything.’ If you think about that one for a moment, you recognize the absurdity of it.

Be helpful. When you see a person without a smile, give them yours.

My first professional job was to sell heavy-duty waterless cookware.

Goals enable you to do more for yourself and others, too.

Husbands and wives, first be faithful to each other. Second, keep the romance going all of your life by courting each other every day.

If at first you don’t succeed, find out if the loser gets anything.

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

Success is dependent upon the glands – sweat glands.

You’ll find out that nothing that comes easy is worth a dime. As a matter of fact, I never saw a football player make a tackle with a smile on his face. Never.

Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.

Lack of direction not lack of time is the problem. We all have twenty-four hour days.

Luck is when preparedness meets opportunity.

Before success comes in any man’s life, he is sure to meet with much temporary defeat, and perhaps some failures. When defeat overtakes a man, the easiest and most logical thing to do is to quit. That is what the majority of men do. That is why the majority is just ordinary.

I like to keep mobile. It keeps my mind awake.

My goal is just to be respected as a man when I walk down the street with my family.

Success is dependent upon the glands – sweat glands.

The best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up.

Success is the ability to go from failure to failure without losing your enthusiasm.

We don’t get what we want, we get what we think we deserve… ask for more.

Think Big and make it happen.
