Zig Ziglar died in 2012. He was an accomplished sales person, and sought-after motivational speaker. He was anything but the stereotype of the carpetbagger and huckster. He was confident, yet gentle and humble, and skilled at imparting his gifts. Here are a few of his memorable quotes, all of which apply far beyond selling.
“There are no traffic jams on the extra mile.”
“There is no elevator to success. You have to take the stairs.”
“Where you start is not as important as where you finish.”
“Go as far as you can. When you get there, you’ll be able to see farther.”
“Anything worth doing is worth doing poorly until you learn to do it well.”
“You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.”
“Remember that failure is an event, not a person.”
“People don’t buy for logical reasons. They buy for emotional reasons.”
“A goal properly set is halfway reached.”
“When you do more than you’re paid for, eventually you’ll be paid for more than you do.”
