Zig Ziglar quotes: “You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want”
As I watched a DVD of Zig Ziglar speaking at a seminar, I heard the man himself said his famous words, “You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want.”
He said that it works for every profession!
He illustrated with an example - he spoke at a medical profession seminar and a doctor asked how that can help in their profession. Zig said that if a doctor treats him and he gets well, he’ll go and tell everyone. But if he dies, he’ll tell no one!
That is truly a profound quote, don’t you think so?
If you can think of any example, I appreciate that you drop a comment or two here.
Here’s my own first comment …
This quote is most apt in network marketing. To succeed, the only way is to help others (downline) to succeed!
That’s the reason why I fell in love with network marketing - it gives me a chance to help others succeed, and in doing so, succeed myself. And to me, that’s really beautiful.
Hi, Roger
I agree with you that one must give, in order to receive. That is an universal law that I am still trying to practise. The more you give, the more you will receive! Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Hi Tricia,

- What goes around comes around
Let’s continue to give more and more …
