People
often say that motivation doesn't last. Well,
neither does bathing--that's why we recommend it daily. |
| |
|
I
believe that being successful means having a balance of success
stories across the many areas of your life. You can't truly be
considered successful in your business life if your home life is
in shambles.

|
You are what you are and you
are where you are because
of what has gone into your mind. You change what you
are and you change where you are by changing what goes
into your mind.

Success is the
doing, not the getting; in the trying, not the
triumph. Success is a personal standard, reaching for the
highest that is in us, becoming all that we can be. If we do
our best, we are a success.
It makes no
difference where you go, there you are. And it makes no
difference what you have, there’s always more to want.
Until you are happy with who you are, you will never be
happy because of what you have.

If
standard of living is your major objective, quality of life almost
never improves, but if quality of life is your number one
objective,
your standard of living almost always improves.
Take one cup
of love, two cups of loyalty, three cups of forgiveness,
four quarts of faith and one barrel of laughter. Take love and
loyalty
and mix them thoroughly with faith; blend with tenderness,
kindness
and understanding. Add friendship and hope. Sprinkle abundantly
with
laughter. Bake it with sunshine. Wrap it regularly with lots of
hugs. Serve generous helpings daily.
It's not where
you start or even what happens to you along the way that's
important. What is important is that you persevere and never give
up on yourself.

Encouragement is the fuel on which hope runs. |

Ability
can take you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there. |
| |
|
Most
people who fail in their dream fail not from
lack of ability but from lack of commitment. |
| |
|
If
you can dream it, then you can achieve it. You will get all you
want in life if you help enough other people get what they want. |

Hilary Hinton
“Zig” Ziglar (born November 6, 1926) is a highly successful
American author, salesperson, and motivational speaker.
Zig Ziglar
was born to John Silas and Lila Ziglar in Coffee County, Alabama as
the tenth of twelve children. When he was four years old, his
father accepted a management position at a Mississippi farm, and his
family moved to Yazoo City, Mississippi, where Zig Ziglar spent most
of his childhood. In 1932, his father died of a stroke (and
his younger sister died two days later), leaving his mother to raise
the remaining eleven children alone.
Ziglar served
in the Navy during World War II, attended the University of South
Carolina, and worked as a salesman in a succession of companies,
during which time his sales skills improved and his interest in
motivational speaking grew. In 1968, Ziglar became a vice
president and training director for the Automotive Performance
company, and moved to Dallas, Texas, where he still lives
today. In 1970, he went into the business of motivational
speaking full-time.
