A Sunday with Zig Ziglar

I had the opportunity to attend Zig Ziglar's Sunday school class this past weekend. As usual it was amazing. The lesson that Zig taught was "You have to have a dream." One thing Zig said that really hit home with me was "You have to see it, before you see it, or you will never see it." This principle is HUGE!

Zig went on to talk about how he saw himself as speaker before he ever became a speaker. He saw himself traveling the world, he saw people falling on the floor and laughing at each of his jokes. Zig said that it took him twenty years to actually realize his dream. Zig made it clear that if he didn't see it before he saw it, then he would have never seen it.

Apply this principle in your life and watch how it changes your life.

Change Your Fruit

Change Your Fruit


Are you ready to change your fruit? Are you ready to start seeing different results in your life? Do you know how to change the results you've been getting in your life? In order to change your fruits (results), you must change your roots(inputs).

You wouldn't expect and apple tree to start producing oranges, you can't expect to start having positive results when all you do is fill your mind with negative inputs. In order to change the surface issues (the fruits) you must change the internal things (the roots).

If you want to change the quality and quantity of the fruits you must change the way you nurture the roots of the plant. You must fertilize and water the roots to change the fruits.

The same principle applies to us as humans. We must change our inputs and fertilize, water and nuture or mind. You must start feeding your mind positive powerful things.

Employee Motivational Article

Conquering the Volcano

I once heard of two friends (one very athletic, the other was definitely lacking in the area of physical ability) who decided to take a hike to the top of volcano. They were enjoying the beautiful clear blue skies and each others company. Once they had spent an hour on top enjoying the view they decided it was time to head back down.

On the way down that is when things got exciting, the volcano actually ruptured. As they weaved their way down through the glowing red lava, they reached a stream of lava about 15 feet wide. This stream of lava was all that stood between these two friends and their safe escape. In his state of panic the athletic friend said that he was going to run and jump to his safety. After all he was on the track team in college, and even participated in the long jump.

Even after much pleading from his not so athletic friend, the athletic friend got a running start and jumped as far as he possibly could and he jumped further than he had ever jumped before. He probably set a world record that will never be broken he landed safely on the other side. He told his not so athletic friend that he would go get help and come back.

Finally, after waiting as long as he possibly could, the not so athletic friend jumped as far as he could and he fell short by ten feet, and was instantly killed.

So which of the two are you? Are you the athletic one or are you the not so athletic one? Or does it even matter which one you are?

Both men were faced with the exact same challenge, both men had the exact same conditions surrounding them, yet one man was successful and the other failed. Neither man new that beautiful morning knew the challenge that they would have to face. However, one man was prepared and the other man wasn’t.

Will you be prepared when life presents you with a challenge? Will you be prepared when life presents you with an opportunity? So how can you prepare for something when you have no idea exactly what opportunity or challenge you will have to face? The answer is that you can’t….you can only live you life to the fullest each and every day. You should live each day as if it were going to be your last.

Prepare to the fullest.

I once heard it said that if an oak tree had a human’s ambitions it would
only grow ten feet tall. We so easily sell ourselves short. Surround yourself
with people who push you to grow and push you out of your comfort zone.

Hummingbirds and Vultures

Hummingbird and the Velture


Both the hummingbird and the vulture fly over our nation's deserts. All vultures see is rotting meat, because that is what they look for. They thrive on that diet. But hummingbirds ignore the smelly flesh of dead animals. Instead, they look for the colorful blossoms of desert plants. The vultures live on what was. They live on the past. They fill themselves with what is dead and gone. But hummingbirds live on what is. They seek new life. They fill themselves with freshness and life. Each bird finds what it is looking for. We all do.

What is it that you are looking for? If you look long enough and hard enough you will eventually find what you are looking for. Make sure you are looking for the things that you truely want and desire.

Frank Lloyd Wright Quote

For more famous inspirational quotes click here.

Architect Frank Lloyd Wright once told of an incident that may have seemed insignificant at the time, but had a profound influence on the rest of his life. The winter he was 9, he went walking across a snow-covered field with his reserved, no-nonsense uncle. As the two of them reached the far end of the field, his uncle stopped him. He pointed out his own tracks in the snow, straight and true as an arrow's flight, and then young Frank's tracks meandering all over the field.
"Notice how your tracks wander aimlessly from the fence to the cattle to the woods and back again," his uncle said. "And see how my tracks aim directly to my goal. There is an important lesson in that."

Years later the world-famous architect liked to tell how this experience had greatly contributed to his philosophy in life. "I determined right then," he'd say with a twinkle in his eye, "not to miss most things in life, as my uncle had."
