About this ebook

After years of speaking and writing bestsellers on the value of having a positive attitude, motivational speaker Zig Ziglar is faced with putting his words into action after a fall leaves him with a head injury. In Embrace the Struggle, Ziglar shares a personal account of his accident and offers encouragement through his firsthand experience of overcoming his most difficult challenge.

One of the leading stars in the “positive thinking” movement, Zig Ziglar has made a career out of telling people how to have a positive attitude, no matter what their circumstances are. But when a fall down a stairway onto a marble floor leaves him with a head injury, he is challenged with how to put the principles he’d been speaking about into practice. Ziglar’s willingness to be transparent has him back writing and speaking with renewed energy before audiences in the tens of thousands to show that life on life’s terms is still well worth living. Embrace the Struggle affirms the validity of the principles Ziglar has held true his entire life and includes not only his account of living positively through difficult circumstances; it also includes heartwarming stories of real people who encouraged him with how they put into practice these vital principles.

Ratings and reviews

Zig Ziglar passed away over a year ago and his books and testimonies and stories are still affecting change in people's lives. Especially mine. Thank you Zigglar corporation and family for your hard work and dedication to helping people find hope in Jesus.

I was a captive listener as a child in my mother's car as she listened to his tapes in the 70's. I did the same to my son as he was growing up. Hopefully he'll carry on the tradition.

If you like this book then visit an AA meeting to see in person this same kind of experience, strength and hope and people who have over come way harder circumstances. Inspiration in your face.
