Zig Ziglar

You already have every characteristic necessary for success if you recognize, claim, develop and use them.

You never know when a moment and a few sincere words can have an impact on a life.

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

It will be disastrous when a leader or manager shows up with one attitude one day and treats people with a different attitude the next day.

Little men with little minds and little imaginations go through life in little ruts, smugly resisting all changes which would jar their little worlds.

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

The starting point of all achievement is desire. Keep this constantly in mind. Weak desire brings weak results, just as a small amount of Are makes a small amount of heat.

Honesty and integrity are absolutely essential for success in life – all areas of life. The really good news is that anyone can develop both honesty and integrity.

Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.

The men who succeed are the efficient few. They are the few who have the ambition and will power to develop themselves.

I was always scared to follow my dreams because if I follow my dreams and I fail, I can’t dream about it anymore. It’s easier to settle for less.

Procastination is not about not doing is about not doing and feeling crappy.

It’s a blip, not a catastrophe.

In the marathon of life, success calls for dedication to the goal, perseverance, compassion for my fellow man, and faith in God.

It is better to know some of the questions than all of the answers.

Imagination is the one weapon in the war against reality.

Success seems to be connected with action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes but don’t quit.

Really good people like me are scared of falling off. I’m totally scared of falling off. Just imagine it. Just imagine if I woke up one day and I was wack. What would I do then?

I gave up the guitar in 1965. Didn’t want to see a guitar. I’d go out and get drunk. When I came out of the heart surgery, the doc said, “Promise me you’ll work hard.” I said, “I thought working hard is what got me here.” He said, “No, working is what will keep you alive.”

The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

Dream won’t work unless you do.
