Overview

You have the potential. But you need that powerful lift that can vault you over any obstacle: a winning attitude. Your talents and skills are inert without a winning self-image to activate them. "Attitude is more important than aptitude," asserts Ziglar as he leads you to think and feel like a winner. Winners are not born - they're made. You can train your mind and body for high performance by applying Zig's formula to your everyday life. As you gain a winning edge, you'll be able to:

* Find the positive in people and situations
* Change bad habits
* Set goals
* Have more rewarding relationships

How to be A Winner is so motivational and inspirational that you'll want to listen to it again and again. This powerful program will revitalize you whenever you are down.

Good, but not the best Zig

This is a great listen but there are others out there from Zig that are better. Try a View From the Top before this one. But if your a big Zig fan give it a listen, but you'll finish it in one day.

You gotta love Zig Ziglar. The motivational speaker that was THE motivational speaker before there was Amway. If you are trying to accomplish big things in your life, then you'll need to stay positive. Listen to something positive to counter act all the negativity in the world ... listen to Zig!

Seem to jump around a lot. It would add more value if his messages and points had a summary. But still overall I would recommend this CD

I like this audiobook. Infact, I've heard it over two times. The book contains some hilarious examples and they are motivating for sure. The only tcomplaint I have to say is, that compared to his other books, this one is rather weak.Remember though, this is ZIG ZIGLAR, so when I mean weak, I mean this is weak by HIS standards. Most other aurthors would love to be even half as good as this book. Rent the book, but dont expect to walk away with that "I CAN DO ANYTHING AFTER HEARING THIS BOOK" feeling.

Zig is a great motivational speaker and any chance you get to hear or read one of his books you should take it. This is a good little book to listen to in the car on the way to work.

Typical Zig

The content is pretty limited in this book and is basically the same as what you'll find in Zig's "Go for Your Goals". However, as always, he is a great motivator and his thoughts are inspiring.
