I never met the man. I didn’t even know what he looked like until today. But Zig Ziglar has inspired millions of people over the years. His wisdom will continue to inspire me. One of my favor quotes from this gifted speaker is:

“People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing — that’s why we recommend it daily.”

Here are a few more thoughtful quotes from Ziglar, who passed away today. He will be missed.

~~~~~~~~~~

“The most influential person who will talk to you all day is you, so you should be very careful about what you say to you!”

~~~~~~~~~~

“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.”

~~~~~~~~~~

“Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.”

~~~~~~~~~~

“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.”

~~~~~~~~~~

“Money won’t make you happy… but everybody wants to find out for themselves.”

~~~~~~~~~~

“If you go looking for a friend, you’re going to find they’re very scarce. If you go out to be a friend, you’ll find them everywhere.”

~~~~~~~~~~

“It’s not what you’ve got, it’s what you use that makes a difference.”

~~~~~~~~~~

“Every choice you make has an end result.”
