  Zig On…What Is Success?

  Very frequently I'm asked to give my definition of success. Here is one of my responses: I believe success is getting a reasonable number of the things money will buy and all of the things that money won't buy.

  Zig On … Little Things

  A gentleman I know quite well had an interesting experience recently. His wife was recuperating at home from surgery and maintaining a light schedule. She could move about but getting up and down and bending were particularly painful.

  Zig On …The Immigrant's Attitude

  Walter Hailey, a retired insurance executive, says that legal immigrants in America are four times as likely to become millionaires as those who are born here. This is true regardless of whether these immigrants are from the Orient, South America, Africa or Europe. The reason is simple. These immigrants give up, in most cases, a great deal to come to America.

  Zig On…Precious Moments

  August 26, 2006, was a special date for our family. That evening we had a dinner to honor the birthdays of our youngest daughter, Julie, and Chachis, our daughter-in-law. It was truly a remarkable and loving evening. We had lots of fun, lots to eat, and there were some serious moments that helped to make the time one of our “precious moments.”

  Zig on Set Your Goals, Change Your Life & Celebrate!

  Studies tell us that only 3% of people in the USA set goals, and they are among the wealthiest people in the nation! Worldwide the percentage is probably lower. Why so low? There are several reasons, but the one that concerns me the most is lack of know-how. When we ask people why they don't set goals they often say, "I don't know how."
