Hey everyone,

Here is my next installment for the weekly Positive Thinking quotes.   Often in life we can get a little down and sometimes even a simple quote can inspire us to push through to the next day.  So while this might not be a life changing Blog post, it may give you a smile, or a burst of momentum on a slow day.

Famous motivational and sales speaker Zig Ziglar.

This week’s quotes come from the internationally renowned inspirational speaker and sales technique master Zig Ziglar (November 6th, 1926 –), creator of the legendary books and courses as: Top Performance: How to Develop Excellence in Yourself and Others, Selling 101: What Every Successful Sales Professional Needs to Know, and See You At The Top . He is equally known for his genteel-Southern accent that is at once familiar and comfortable, and for his weaving of  Judeo-Christian ethics into practical motivation for your personal life and business life.  The list of people, especially professionals and entrepreneurs, Zig has helped over the last few decades is impressive.  If you have Zig Ziglar speeches, courses, cds, or books in your collection you can bet you’ll see results in many areas of your life.

Now for some Zig Ziglar quotes:

Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.
- Zig Ziglar

Failure is a detour, not a dead-end street.

-Zig Ziglar

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.
-Zig Ziglar

If you don’t see yourself as a winner, then you cannot perform as a winner.
-Zig Ziglar

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.
-Zig Ziglar

If you learn from defeat, you haven’t really lost.
-Zig Ziglar

A goal properly set is halfway reached.
-Zig Ziglar

A lot of people quit looking for work as soon as they find a job.
-Zig Ziglar

-Zig Ziglar

Every choice you make has an end result.
-Zig Ziglar

If you want to reach a goal, you must “see the reaching” in your own mind before you actually arrive at your goal.
-Zig Ziglar

It was character that got us out of bed, commitment that moved us into action, and discipline that enabled us to follow through.
-Zig Ziglar

It’s not what you’ve got, it’s what you use that makes a difference.
-Zig Ziglar

Some of the best quotes I’ve ever read.  Really good qoutes to chew on in your mind.  I know I will.  Life really comes down to the choices we make and the determination we have.  Zig is definitely worth a listen and a read.
