10 Sayings of Wisdom from Zig Ziglar

Years ago I worked for a company that used Zig Ziglar training to train sales staff.  I never forgot the lessons learned from that training.  I wanted to share 10 jewels from a great motivational speaker and salesman, Zig Ziglar.

1. "Remember that failure is an event, not a person."
2. "It's not how far you fall, but how high you bounce that counts."
3. "You will get all you want in life, if you help enough other people get what they want."
4. "Of course motivation is not permanent. But then, neither is bathing; but it is something you should do on a regular basis."
5. "People don’t buy for logical reasons. They buy for emotional reasons."
6. "Lack of direction, not lack of time, is the problem. We all have twenty-four hour days."
7. "A lot of people have gone further than they thought they could because someone else thought they could."
8. "When obstacles arise, you change your direction to reach your goal; you do not change your decision to get there."
9. "Never judge the day by the weather."
10. "If you can dream it, you can achieve it."
