- Zig Ziglar’s Inspiration: 365 Days A Year: Watch the Video @ Inspiration 365
- I love listening to him speak - he has a wonderful southern drawl. My favorite quote from him is: “You can have everything you want in life if you will just help enough other people get what they want”.
- He has a quote for each day of the year. My favorite for coming week is “God gives everyone certain attribute, characteristics, talents, and then says, if you use what you have I’ll increase it, but if you don’t use it, you will lose it.” Use it or lose it; it’s the law.” - Charlie “Tremendous” Jones.

- Week Two Assignment - Sing Your Praises
- When we have a great deal of self-love, we’re able to acknowledge our strengths, talents and God-given gifts, and feel comfortable sharing our gifts with others. Contrary to what many of us were taught, acknowledging our greatness doesn’t diminish those around us. In fact, when we allow ourselves to shine, we give others permission to do the same. Self-love means loving ourselves enough to allow all of our magnificence to be seen.
- This week, share with at least three people whom you don’t normally confide in all the things you do well. Notice how sharing your gifts lights you (and those around you) up. For those who have worked with us - pull out your passions, unique ability & personal mission - revise if necessary and share!

Hi Tom! Happy New Year! Great to hear from you. I enjoy showing these inspirational clips in between our quartly department presentations. The stunning pictures, wonderful music and thought provoking quotes set a positive mood. My favorite quote from the Zig link above was: Faith is taking the first step even though you don't see the whole staircase.

What a fantastic week, thanks to your nudge (in the form of this great e-newsletter) and some time I got to spend with Elaine! I selected my 2009 Angel Card: "Support- stay connected and let others in. Widen your channel of giving and receiving. Reach out with encouragement and be versatile and timely in your resourcefulness." It never ceases to amaze me how one simple word can capture where you are at any given place in time! Thanks for the reminders of simple ways to stay passionate about what's right! :) Pam
ReplyDeleteHi Tom I have two favorite quotes that I will share and feel everyone should try to live by. From Zig "You can have everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want" From John Wooden "If you don't have time to do something right,when will you have time to do it over". I try to live my life with this philosophy and it makes you feel great when you help others. Talk to you all soon

Tom,
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea and I look forward to staying connected.
This is also like a test message for me to see how this works.
Thanks,
