Kick The Purveyors of Negativity Out of Your Mind With These Zig Ziglar Quotes

Sometimes we don't even notice it. It just creeps in, silently like a thief in the night. Other times we face a tough situation and we lose confidence. We replay the past event and it takes control of our present and affects our future. We let the words and the whining of others drag us down to their level of misery. If you're like me, you need a quick tool to shake out of this funk. These Zig Ziglar quotes are the quick tool you're seeking.

I've provided rent-free dwelling in my own mind in the past to people who are carriers of self-loathing and "whoa is me" syndrome.

We've written other pages about uplifting quotes, leadership quotes, and motivational quotes. You'll find those pages at the end of this one and also in our page directory located in the right margin of every page. We've compiled this list of Zig Ziglar quotes so they are right at your fingertips. Many of them came from a great little book titled, "Zig Ziglar's Little Book of Big Quotes."

Our thoughts determine our actions. What goes into our minds develops our thoughts. So lets begin this progression with positive energy to produce effective actions as accountable citizens and responsible adults.

Some Zig Ziglar Quotes About Removing Negative Thinking From Our Minds

"Before you change your thinking, you have to change what goes into your mind.

What comes out of your mouth is determined by what goes into your mind.

Don't be distracted by criticism. Remember-the only taste of success some people have is when they take a bite out of you.

It's not what you know, it's what you use that makes a difference.

You are what you are and where you are because of what has gone into your mind. You can change what you are and where you are by changing what goes into your mind.

Some people find fault like there is a reward for it.

Far too many people have no idea of what they can do because all they have been told is what they can't do. They don't know what they want because they don't know what's available for them.

When your image improves, your performance improves.

When a company or an individual compromises one time, whether it's on price or principle, the next compromise is right around the corner.

When you exercise your freedom to express yourself at the lowest level, you ultimately condemn yourself to live at that level.

You can get everything money will buy without a lick of character, but you can't get any of the things money won't buy-happiness, joy, peace of mind, winning relationships, etc., without character.

With integrity you have nothing to fear, since you have nothing to hide. With integrity you will do the right thing, so you will have no guilt. With fear and guilt removed you are free to be and do your best."

Hope and Encouragement From Zig

"Failure is an event, not a person. Yesterday ended last night.

Character gets you out of bed; commitment moves you to action. Faith, hope, and discipline enable you to follow through to completion.

Most of us would be upset if we were accused of being 'silly.' But the word 'silly' comes from an old English word 'selig,' and its literal definition is 'to be blessed, happy, healthy and prosperous.'

Be helpful. When you see a person without a smile, give him yours.

You cannot make it as a wandering generality. You must become a meaningful specific.

You will make a lousy anybody else, but you will be the best 'you' in existence.

When someone we love is having difficulty and is giving us a bad time, it's better to explore the cause than to criticize the action.

Obstacles are things we see when we take our eyes off our goals.

Other people and things can stop you temporarily. You're the only one who can do it permanently."

Zig On Attitude

"You can disagree without being disagreeable.

You cannot tailor make the situations in life, but you can tailor make the attitudes to fit those situations before they arise.

Of all the 'attitudes' we can acquire, surely the attitude of gratitude is the most important and by far the most life changing.

The most practical, beautiful, workable philosophy in the world won't work-if you don't.

Motivation gets you going and habit gets you there. Make motivation a habit and you will get there more quickly and have more fun on the trip.

If we don't start, it's certain we can't arrive.

Obviously, there is little you can learn from doing nothing."
