He contributed two giant tools to those of us in business: the notion of listening, over and over, to educational and motivational tapes, and the idea of writing down yourhttp://lklk.blogbaker.com/ goals, committing to them, in writing.Fifteen years later, in one of the highlights of my speaking career, he and I did a gig together in Milwaukee.
     Recently side-lined by an injury, Zig's no longer able to actively spread the ideas that have helped millions of people accomplish their goals. I'm privileged to be able to bring some of those ideas to you today. What a thrill, then, to publish a new version of his classic Performance Planner, updated for a new generation. It was Zig, me and Gerald Ford. I can now admit http://nmnm1.blogbaker.com/that backstage, the two of us ignored the President and just talked and talked.
      It's hard for me to overstate how much I owe him.It's also easy to assume that mythology will guarantee financial success, but it didn't work for General Magic, a company which successfully leveraged the heroic reputations of its founders, created a very hot IPO but failed to match the needs of the larger market.Zig saved the day. http://wuwu.blogbaker.com/  With his relentless generosity, corny stories and down-home wisdom, Zig Ziglar invented modern motivational speaking, and touched the world. He touched my world, that's for sure. How much so many of us do. You can buy the four-pack right here.We have very different backgrounds, we're from different generations and we have very different styles, but I'm in his debt.
