DEDICATION
I dedicate this eBook to everyone who aspires to succeed at sales by creating a great paradigm. A paradigm is a collection of thoughts, behaviors, and perceptions that dictate your feelings, actions, and results. Poor input equals poor results! You need to put positive and inspiring thoughts into your mind to achieve excellent results in your life!
Learning from those who have come before is the way to do that. If you want to be successful in anything, follow those who have achieved what you desire.
If you want to live beyond your wildest dreams, you must change yourself in ways that will help you believe you can.
Some of my favorite people who helped form my paradigm, starting back in the nineteen eighties, are Zig Ziglar, Jim Rohn, and Brian Tracey, amongst many others. This eBook covers a broad range of inspirational quotes from well-known people. They are timeless! They are inspiring.
This eBook is dedicated to them, the ones that have given so much and changed so many people’s lives.
I want to share some of their greatest quotes, hoping they will inspire you as they inspire me.
Thank you all so much!
Howard Jaros

PREFACE
Some quotes in this writing are from two greats in the motivational speaker world.
Zig Ziglar was a renowned motivational speaker, author, and salesperson. He was known for his inspirational messages and teachings on success, salesmanship, and personal development. Ziglar’s approach to sales emphasized building relationships, understanding customer needs, and maintaining a positive attitude. He authored several books, including “See You at the Top” and “Secrets of Closing the Sale,” which are considered classics in personal development and sales training. Ziglar’s work continues to inspire and influence people around the world.
For over three decades, his peers have recognized Zig Ziglar as America’s most consistent messenger of hope and optimism.
Having shared the stage with Presidents Ford, Reagan, and Bush, Generals Norman Schwarzkopf and Colin Powell, Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, Paul Harvey, and Dr. Robert Schuller, he is one of the world’s most sought-after personal development trainers.
Ziglar’s client list reads like a who’s who in American and global business. Nine of his twenty-three books have been on the bestseller lists, and his titles have been translated into more than thirty-eight languages and dialects.
Zig has inspired people from every walk to achieve more than they ever thought possible.
Jim Rohn was an American entrepreneur, author, and motivational speaker. He is considered one of the most significant personal development and motivational speakers ever. Rohn’s teachings often focused on the fundamentals of success, including personal development, goal-setting, leadership, and sales. He was known for his insightful quotes and simple yet powerful philosophies, such as “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with,” and success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying fundamentals.”
Rohn’s seminars and books, including “The Art of Exceptional Living” and “The Five Major Pieces to the Life Puzzle,” have inspired countless individuals to achieve their goals and reach their full potential. His influence extends beyond his work, as many contemporary motivational speakers and self-help authors credit Rohn as a major influence on their philosophies and teachings.
An example of the kind of quote included in the eBook is one of Zig Ziglar’s great quotes: “If you help enough other people get what they want, you will have everything in life you want.”
“Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day; while failure is simply a few errors in judgement, repeated every day. It is the accumulative weight of our disciplines and our judgements that leads us to either fortune or failure. – Jim Rohn
