Here are 36 Zig Ziglar quotes to inspire any business owner regardless of the stage of their business:
  1. If you can dream it, then you can achieve it. You will get all you want in life if you help enough other people get what they want.
  2. Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.
  3. Money isn’t the most important thing in life, but it’s reasonably close to oxygen on the “gotta have it” scale.
  4. I believe that being successful means having a balance of success stories across the many areas of your life. You can’t truly be considered successful in your business life if your home life is in shambles.
  5. Every choice you make has an end result.
  6. There has never been a statue erected to honor a critic.
  7. People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing – that’s why we recommend it daily.

  9. Money won’t make you happy… but everybody wants to find out for themselves.
  10. If you learn from defeat, you haven’t really lost.
  11. People don’t buy for logical reasons. They buy for emotional reasons.
  12. Rich people have small TVs and big libraries, and poor people have small libraries and big TVs.

  15. You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great
  16. Make today worth remembering.
  17. If you aim at nothing, you will hit it every time.
  18. There are no traffic jams on the extra mile.
  19. Failure is an event not a person
  20. Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes.
  21. You were born to win, but to be a winner you must plan to win, prepare to win, and expect to win.
  22. Make failure your teacher, not your undertaker.
  23. Ability can take you to the top, but it takes character to keep you there
  24. It’s not how far you fall, but how high you bounce that counts.
  25. Motivation gets you going and habit gets you there.
  26. Everybody says they want to be free. Take the train off the tracks and it’s free-but it can’t go anywhere.
  27. Money is not everything but it ranks right up there with oxygen
  28. Put all excuses aside and remember this: YOU are capable.
  29. Go as far as you can see and you will see further.
  30. You can feed your ego or you can feed your family. You can’t feed them both.
  31. You don’t drown by falling in water; you only drown if you stay there.

  36. This I do know beyond any reasonable doubt. Regardless of what you are doing, if you pump long enough, hard enough and enthusiastically enough, sooner or later the effort will bring forth the reward.
