You can get everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want.

About the Quote
Not everyone is born wealthy. Not everyone wins the state lottery. For the rest of us, we have to work to achieve whatever goals he have. That means we will need help. It also means others need help from us.
For an author to achieve wealth and success, the author needs readers who will buy books or other forms of content. When the content helps others in tangible ways, the author helped the reader. When the readers buy the content, they help the author.
It's OK for us to be selfish as long as we help others get what they they want. In this way, it can be win-win for everyone.
Some Information about Zig Ziglar
Hilary Hinton Ziglar was born in Coffee County, Alabama, US on 1926-November-6. He died in Plano, Texas, US on 2012-November-28.
Zig Ziglar is best known as one of the more famous salesmen in the country, and his success as a motivational speaker is testament to his sales acumen.
His experience as a salesman began when he was in grammar school when he sold peanuts to make extra money to help out his widowed mother. During his adolescence, Zig Ziglar worked as a grocer.
After high school he served in the United States Navy, and after the war he attended the University of South Carolina. As a college student he found a part-time job at the WearEver Aluminum Company as a salesperson. He learned the ins-and-outs of the position, and he quickly excelled as a salesperson. As Zig Ziglar would say years later, his success as a salesperson was due to encouragement from division superviaor P. C. Merrell.
Ziglar quit his career as a salesperson in 1970 to become a motivational speaker on a full-time basis.
