What’s the key to Success
Here is a great quote “Flaming enthusiasm,backed by horse sense and persistence,is the quality that most frequently makes for success.” -Dale Carnegie-
Is there a key some say yes others say maybe and then you have the ones that just do. That is the key, for without action nothing will ever happen. Another quote “There are no secrets to success: Don’t waste time looking for them. Success is the result of perfection,hard work,learning from failure,loyalty to those for whom you work,and persistence.-Colin Powell-
Zig Ziglar
ig Ziglar was born in Coffee County in southeastern Alabama to parents John Silas Ziglar and Lila Wescott Ziglar. He was the tenth of twelve children.[1]
In 1931, when Ziglar was five years old, his father took a management position at a Mississippi farm, and his family moved to Yazoo City, where he spent most of his early childhood. The next year, his father died of a stroke, and his younger sister died two days later.
Ziglar served in the United States Navy during World War II (c. 1943 to 1945). He was in the Navy V-12 Navy College Training Program and attended the University of South Carolina in Columbia, South Carolina.
In 1944, he met his wife, Jean, in the capital city of Jackson, Mississippi; he was seventeen and she was sixteen. They married in late 1946.[2]
Ziglar later worked as a salesman in a succession of companies. In 1968, he became a vice president and training director for the Automotive Performance company, moving to Dallas, Texas.
As of 2010, Ziglar still traveled around taking part in motivational seminars, despite a fall down a flight of stairs in 2007 that left him with short-term memory problems. State Representative Chris Greeley of Maine mentions Ziglar in the credits of his CD on public speaking.[3]
Ziglar weaved his Christianity into his motivational work. He was also an open Republican who endorsed former Governor Mike Huckabee for his party’s presidential nomination in 2008.[4]. This was written up in Wikipedia
I mention Zig Ziglar because he is one of the great success stories out there. I first heard of him when I was in Amway and he was an inspiration to me and I am sure he has inspired thousand’s. He became a great man who rose up from humble beginning’s.
Success comes to those who make a decision that nothing and no one will stop them from achieving their goals. Some do so early in life and some are late bloomers, to those who come into success later in life, I think the absorbed a lot of information on the way up. It just took them a little longer to get there.
Once again the key can have meaning in many ways, it all depends on the individual who wants success and is willing to do whatever it takes.”If you take no risks, you will suffer no defeats. But if you take no risks, you win no victories.”-Richard Nixon-
No matter what or how you decide, “If you believe it you can achieve it”
Now I come to this part because I believe it and I intend to achieve it not matter what. I am one of those late bloomers, it has not been for lack of trying, I’ve been trying for a long time. I finally realized that I need to quit trying and just do, do whatever it takes, read positive knowledge based books, get to know people who are successful and listen to what they say and do. That is my plan and it will be done.
Success in all you do
