In Memory of a Great Man, Zig Ziglar...

Oh, sorry, I should have searched before starting another thread on the same topic.

I'll share here though:

Two of my favorite Zig quotes:

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

"People often complain motivation doesn't last. Neither does bathing; that's why we recommend it daily."

Awesome, love both of those.

My favorite quote:
"People often complain motivation doesn't last. Neither does bathing; that's why we recommend it daily."

R.I.P Zig

You'll always be in our memory...

Zig will always be remembered by everyone in the industry. Your spirit lives among all of us!

Another thing that really impressed me about Zig is that despite all his great accomplishments, when asked in an interview what his single greatest accomplishment was he answered without hesitation "being happily married to the same woman for over 50 years."

He was a man of great character and high integrity, keeping his priorities straight and never forgetting the things in life that matter most.

Zig was a true legend.

Couple of my favorite Zig Ziglar quotes: "The Will to Win is nothing with the Will to Prepare to Win." And "If there is hope in the future, there is power in the present."

R.I.P Zig.

Zigs a legend, a great man truly, RIP Zig.

He really had a great impact...a vibrant discussion has been going on at:

Just heard this today. He influenced me in so many ways. Happy he lived, Sad he's gone.

Sad to hear this. He had a fulfilling life, inspiring many to greatness.

RIP Zig Ziglar

I'm gonna miss that man. He was one of the first motivational figures that I began to follow almost 7 years ago.

See ya over the top Zig

The "closing the sale" video is my favorite!

There are a ton of threads on Zig but they are all deserved!

Oh.. I didn't know...
A great man indeed.

Just saw this thread. I just posted my favorite in another place. But it's appropriate in both threads. Plus, I don't think too many people can read it anyway. :-)

This is from his "How To Stay Motivated" Series. It's a great thing to print & read every day.
