Dear Friend,
I have learned a lot of lessons in my life. Some I have had to learn more than once.
Perhaps the biggest lesson I learned from Dad was that when I choose the right input into my mind, I am also choosing the outcome of that input.
Dear Friend,
What if, in every interaction, you gave “a little extra”?
At lunch with a friend you finish the meal with a simple phrase: “I don’t think I have told you how much these times with you mean to me. I am grateful for our friendship.
I remember my early teenage years. Boy, did I love to sleep!
Like most teenagers, I was a professional sleeper!
Sunday morning would roll around and at 7:30 a.m., Dad would come in and wake me up.
“Son, it’s time to get up and get ready for church.
Systems. Routines. Habits. Proven steps. These are what franchises are made of, and they are foundational to our personal and business success. We discuss this with longtime Ziglar personality, and one of today’s foremost experts on franchises, John Hayes.
Dear Friend,
Think of all the things in life you have learned. What would you say is the number one lesson you learned?
Here is mine:
"What you feed your mind determines your appetite." Tom Ziglar
I took this from Dad’s quote:
"You are what you are and where you are because of what has gone into your mind.
Dear Friend,
Have you noticed that when two teams are playing and they are evenly matched that the home team wins more than 50% of the time? That is the home court advantage.
Having a great relationship with your spouse and with your kids is also an advantage.
Dear Friend,
I remember it like it was yesterday. My daughter, Alexandra, had just celebrated her ninth birthday. We had a party with her friends and the day of cake, and presents, and fun, was almost done.
I was putting her to bed, telling her a story about Wally the Weasel, our imaginary superhero friend.
Dear Friend,
What is your mission in life? Have you taken time to think about it?
In my experience, most people don’t. They never take the time to think it through. Or, if they do, they don’t commit and declare their mission.
This is Show #387, and we’re listening to Zig talk to us about personal standards -- having personal standards and making them high standards. This is not an awareness most people are ever given. The great news is we can clarify and state them now, and start shaping ourselves around and benefitting from them…now.
Every day the world you live in is created by your attitude. Either you dictate it, someone else does, or your attitude does. This is the first focus of the show. Next, hit on motivation...which is motive…which is…your reason. If you aren’t clear on this, you are a race car with an empty fuel tank.
INTERVIEW: Chris Guillebeau
TITLE: How to dominate by opting out
Today we're going to talk about…questioning the norm. A cliché statement and concept, right? We'd all like to think of ourselves to some degree as being renegades, rebels, leaders, and unique.
Dear Friend,
It is time to step up.
Are you ready?
Are people asking you to step up?
Are you expected to step up?
Are you afraid to step up?
It is time to step up.
What is holding you back?
What could go wrong?
What could go right?
It is time to step up.
