As good as dad was on stage, he was even better at home! He brought hope and encouragement wherever he was. When Zig was talking one-on-one with you, you felt like you were the only one in the room! The real difference-making in the world comes when you show people, one-on-one, that you care about them. Dad said you can do whatever you want to do, just do it with 100% integrity and 100% effort. While dad was alive, we estimate he impacted about 250 million people! Every night for over a year I went to bed worried that I had ruined dad's reputation--which was the wrong mindset. Dad's reputation actually got stronger. Be, Do, and Have philosophy: You have to be before you can do, and you have to do before you can have. What you have and what you do can be taken away from you, but who you are can only be surrendered. When I work, every single day, on who I am, the doing and the having are a natural off-shoot of that. Everything is about the scalability of trust. If people trust you, they will want to do business with you. I want this year to be the best travel year I've ever had. I give the flight crew little gifts. I changes the entire atmosphere on the plane. Your attitude is reflection of your character and your character is a reflection of your habits. The greatest thing we can teach our kids is the discipline of creating winning habits. Late in his life, dad lost his short-term memory. He said "I've still got a lot to say so we've got to figure out a new way of do it!" With his memory loss, dad reached new people in a new way who he would not have reached with his full health.
