Dear Family, Zig Ziglar

To most high achieving people, the name Zig Ziglar is a household name. His book, See You at the Top: 25th Anniversary Edition
, is a classic and for decades he has spoken to sold out auditoriums around the world.

But, first he is a family man, a God fearing husband, father and grandfather, etc.

Because of this, he has written another book, Dear Family. I consider his thoughts in this book as valuable as those from his best-selling books on sales and motivation.

Here are some of the quotations from Dear Family
set on the backdrop of morgueFile.com bicycles.

Enjoy it!
