"You can have everything
in life that you want if you will just help enough other people get what they
want."
~ Zig Ziglar
Since I
stumbled upon this nugget of wisdom from Mr. Zig Ziglar, I have often used it
to promote others through my writing. My first book was based on this
philosophy. I wouldn’t be surprised if the next book is written for someone
special or the audience attached to that person.
I’ve often
blogged about people going out of their way for others or examples of courage
and bravery. It’s the least I can do to give back to those special
people and my audience.
This is
part of the battle I fight daily. Where to sometimes draw a fine line and
either go to the edge or just bust the door down. Careful consideration is
required and wisdom is heeded.
Slowly
building a following, which look forward to what subject I tackle next or
attempt to eradicate is always interesting. The opportunity to make a
difference is too important to keep silent. The responsibility to serve others
is a key to understanding success.
It’s not an
easy road to travel due to risk. The possibility of success always exceeds the
risk factor. Any great achievement was mastered by overcoming the fear of risk.
History shows this correlation time and time again.
Giving into
fear is true failure. By avoiding risk we stagnate, suffer and never enter the
race. We never learn the tactics to improve our process. Never understand what
we are capable of doing or perfecting. Subsequently, we avoid the opportunity.
It’s pretty
tough helping someone achieve what they want, if we can’t overcome our own
fears. Responding to someone with: “I’m sorry, I’d love to help you
but…..,”- just doesn’t cut it and isn’t helping anyone. That’s not what Zig
suggested in his motto.
By clearing the
hurdle of risk, we can begin to make a difference in something meaningful that
matters for others!

We Meet Again,
