From the Publisher 

For more than three decades, Zig Ziglar has traveled the world delivering powerful self-improvement messages. His ability to encourage, uplift, and inspire audiences clearly identifies him as one of the great motivators of the age. 

His ground-breaking book See You at the Top, revised and updated in this twenty-fifth anniversary edition, remains an authentic American classic, explaining step by step his time-tested formula for individual development and personal success. It is a philosophy that truly spans generations of readers who have been guided by its principles. 

See You at the Top is still widely used by corporations, schools, government agencies, sales organizations, and correctional institutions -- wherever motivation and self-improvement are major goals -- and serves as the foundation of the celebrated "I Can" course for young people.

Firmly committed to his Christian faith, Ziglar offers a compelling case for his basic premise: You can have everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want.

He stresses the importance of honesty, loyalty, faith, integrity, and high personal character. He emphasizes the value of a healthy self-image and shows how to build it. He also demonstrates why personal goals are an essential part of any program for success and teaches the reader how to set -- and achieve -- those goals.

9 Steps to Get to the Top, July 6, 2002

Recommend this to everyone ~ it will help motivate you to reach your goals.

The premise is simple: We all hold the keys to our own success, and we deserve it. It is not accidental but deliberate and takes hard work.

1) Success starts with self-image because you are the only one who can make that possible. Before you convince anyone else, you have to convince yourself.

2) Successful people are Good Finders; they look for the good in other people. You can have anything in your life, if you help others get what they want¡±. (page 57)

3) No goals = no game. Activity is not accomplishment. Don't be a wandering generality. Goals should be big, long range, daily and specific.

4) Unlimited possibilities. Records were meant to be broken. Until Roger Bannister ran the four-minute mile, most thought it was physically impossible. After his achievement, people broke the record constantly.

5) Work as a team. There is a limit to what you can accomplish by yourself. Example: Geese fly 72% farther by flying together.

6) Attitude is everything. It determines the outcome. While you cannot control the environment, you (and only you) can control your attitude. The pessimist says. ¡°I will believe it when I see it. The optimist says, ¡°I will see it when I believe it.¡± (page 206)

7) Create good habits because habits define our lives. Example: The average teenage student watches 17,000 hours of television before they graduate high school.

8) Successful people enjoy their work.

9) Keep going. "The price of success is less than the price of failure". (page 33)
