Excellent!

I can't help but smile as I listen to this audiobook and hear Zig Ziglar's voice. He lived what he wrote and spoke about and his life is such a testimony to it!

This is a great tool for improving state of mind, healing, business, family and all other relationships. Ill be repeating the series again and highly recommend it to anyone age 15 or older.

Third in the series, but can definitely be read alone, you'll find "The Goals Program" will walk you through creating your goals and how to stick to them. Once again, Zig Ziglar will be giving the talks for each chapter as he did before 1,000s. This is my 3rd read and I will be reading it again.

Love Zig's closing..."I will see you; and yes, I really do mean you, at the top."

You can't listen to anything by Zig Ziglar and not give it 5 stars.

Will listen over and over. Not only can I almost repeat this word for word but I can even do it in Zig's accent.

We all have goals, but how many of us develop a "goals program" to help us carry out our goals? Having a planned process to implement our plans is the best way to assure success. Highly respected motivational speaker and author Zig Ziglar sets out the framework for creating a goals program in this short and easily readable book. He uses stories from his experiences to illustrate principles, such as the key importance of persistence, hard work leads to reward, universal human goals, benefits of attaining these goals, choosing happiness, positive self-image, ingraining good habits, identifying obstacles, and identifying what you need to get to your goals. Ziglar argues that the main reason why 97% of people don't have goals is that they don't know how to put together a goals program. The book details the 5-step goal-setting process. Then it explores considerations in creating your goals program, which becomes the blueprint for successfully attaining your goals. Elements in this are realizing it will involve embracing change, making a commitment, building a solid foundation, ensuring a positive attitude, daily disciplined accountability, staying in shape, using self-affirming words, having attainable steps, cooperating with others, and taking a far view to make you reach and extend.

Ziglar's book is entertaining, humorous, inspiring, and full of many helpful suggestions. His unbounded enthusiasm permeates and becomes infectious, until you actually believe you can attain greater goals than you might imagine. Success is not equated with financial wealth, but encompasses a full and balanced life where you invest in your own unfolding toward your highest potential.

A classic Zig Ziglar book - full of the traditional stories, humor, wisdom and heartfelt desire for you to be successful. Focusing on developing and maintaining goals that will drive you to heights you would not expect, and with purpose that will keep you motivated. While some might find the Ziglar approach to be hokey or simplistic - it really isn't. The book is an easy read and enjoyable wake up call to action and developing goals (he doesn't call them SMART goals - but that's what they are) and building the life you want. A must read for anyone looking to be the best they can be.

[James Briggs · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was another good book, with good pointers but a lot of repetition! Repetition is key but it's pretty much the same rating as everything else I've rated for Ziglar
