We, as humans, often skip over the foundational step…the step of “being.” It comes before “doing,” and from that the end result…having. Zig makes two big points in this show, 1) We must first be (become) the right person, and 2) We must have vision.
Tom Ziglar answers a question in this Q&A with host Kevin Miller about the most important lessons his dad, Zig Ziglar, gave him as a child and adult. His answer uncovers possibly four of the most important lessons Zig has for us all. Thank you to Audible and new show sponsor, SmileDirectClub, for supporting this show!
Hi, everyone, this is Kevin Miller, and this is Ziglar’s True Performance Show, episode 422, and we are doing a Q&A show with Tom Ziglar.
The second installment of our recent focus on Zig’s favorite topic…marriage. Host Kevin Miller and his wife, Teri, tackle the third question from Show #418, what percentage of a marriage should be friendship, partnership or romance? Then they cover a number of the over 600 questions and comments posted to their live Facebook video.
Today I will love the process.
It’s hard not to get caught up in expectations. To be so results-focused we set ourselves up for disappointment.
Yet, if we love the process, savoring the doing of what needs to be done, the results will come.
“Today is a brand new day. And it’s yours!”
Dad always stressed the power of making the most of each and every day we are given.
He never stopped growing every day—and you shouldn’t either. Especially when you’re handed a gift like the event I mentioned yesterday.
As you plan your schedule for the week, I want to introduce you to a way you can prepare to win this week!
As Dad often said, it’s not enough to plan to win. You must take the necessary steps to prepare to win.
The only way you’re ever going to turn your plans into reality and create a winning life is by tackling the challenge of personal skill development.
Dad and Jim Rohn had a long-term relationship based on mutual respect and admiration.
They made each other think in the way that iron sharpens iron.
I got to witness this first-hand.
“You enhance your chances for success when you understand that your yearning power is more important than your earning power.” Zig Ziglar
What do you yearn for? Have you written it down? Can you look into the future and see yourself achieving what you are yearning for?
Many of you, I'm certain, have heard the old saying that "close doesn't count, except in horseshoes and grenades." In most cases, that little "funny" is right on target because sometimes little things do make big differences. For example, an extra 20 minutes a day can have a profound impact on your future with your company.
Zig asks, “What do you believe about yourself?!” This dictates everything you do in your life. Your decisions, your actions, your successes and failures. For the most part, you get to choose what you will and won’t believe about you. That’s the good news.
It’s an inside job.
If we want our life to change
Our prosperity
Our relationships
Our peace of mind
Our health
Our happiness
If we want all of these things to change, we have to change ourselves first.
The great philosopher Jim Rohn said:
“Don’t wish it were easier, wish you were better.
It’s time.
Time for you to take that first step.
Time to move forward.
What is it you know you should do but haven’t done?
Here is the push you need.
