| 'Embrace the Struggle' by Zig Ziglar & Julie Ziglar Norman |
Hello, Everyone!
Today's post features a video from Embrace the Struggle site about an experience Zig Ziglar went through, using principles he's been teaching others for year, to overcome successfully. He and his daughter, Julie Ziglar Norman co-authored a book with the same title, 'Embrace the Struggle: Living Life on Life's Terms
' which tells Zig's story. Among other things that Zig Ziglar is famous for are his positivity quotes, and he practices what he preaches/teaches to others to achieve, succeed, survive and thrive, the right way! Specifically, the book features: One of the leading stars in the "positive thinking" movement, Zig Ziglar, who has made a career out of telling people how to have a positive attitude, no matter what their circumstances are. When a fall down a stairway onto a marble floor (in March 2007) leaves Zig with a head injury, he is challenged with how to put the principles he's been speaking to others about into practice for himself. Zig Ziglar's willingness to be transparent got him writing and speaking again with a renewed energy, before audiences (in the tens of thousands) to show that life on life's terms is still well worth living. This book, 'Embrace the Struggle' affirms the validity of the principles Zig has held true his entire life and includes not only his account of living positively through difficult circumstances, it includes heart-warming stories of real people who encouraged him with how they put into practice these vital principles he's taught, as well.
As we go through the challenges that we are/everyone is facing aroung the world, now, we may need encouragement to not give up and know that we can succeed in spite of them. Know that when life circumstances seem like they are trying to beat you up and destroy you, you do not have to give up, despair and let them win! If you need an example, let Zig Ziglar's life example encourage and inspire you, as well as the stories of those that have already been encouraged and inspired by Zig's life of positivity lessons.
Below are editorial reviews of this book to give you an idea of the impact of its contents on other people.
" "For decades Zig Ziglar has been a champion of positive thinking. On the sixty-ninth anniversary of his twenty-first birthday, he declared he was 'refiring' rather than retiring. And despite a brain injury that's left him with short-term memory loss, he's still fired up. Anyone facing tough circumstances will find comfort and inspiration in Zig's encouraging message." -- Ken Blanchard, coauthor, The One Minute Manager® and Lead Like Jesus
"Zig Ziglar's Embrace the Struggle, written with his daughter Julie, is timely reading for me. As my wife and I grow older we know we will have to leave our home, where we have lived for over fifty years. But with Zig's guidance we can Embrace our Struggle with energy and with hope." -- John Sherrill, roving editor, Guideposts magazine
"My mood-swing patients who listen to Ziglar the most do the best. Embrace the Struggle is for everyone who faces challenges, whether medical or from life's stressors. Facing an unpleasant reality with a positive attitude can make all the difference. Zig explains his highly successful approach to traumatic brain injury with courage, common sense, and his usual humor." -- Leland M. Heller, MD
"Zig Ziglar understands life including its struggles and setbacks. If you want to live an abundant life by embracing all that God gives -- read this book written by one of the greatest Christians I've ever known." -- Jack Graham, pastor, Prestonwood Baptist Church
"Zig has one more valuable lesson to teach each of us. Living in the moment, right now, with the people you love and for a cause you believe in -- this is what matters. He is an inspiration and a national treasure, and each of us is better off because Zig Ziglar cares about making the world a better place." -- Seth Godin, author, Tribes " ~ Amazon.com
