Zig Ziglar – Prime the Pump

I think Zig Ziglar is just great.

If you do not know who he is, he is a Southern American Motivational Speaker and has been on the speaking circuit since the 1980s. I have blogged about Zig before and his Motivational Podcast.

One of the videos on Zigs podcast is one with his very famous Water Pump. This was Zigs trademark in the early days and I urge you to watch this, and hopefully you will make the connection to the words that Zig is saying.

I think there are many truths in this video, ones that can help you in a lot of aspects of your life.

Watch the video, and I would love to have your comments and feedback.

    Wow that is a powerful visual. Powerful speaking techniques there too, story, repetition, pacing. I could learn from that. A pretty fundamental life lesson to boot. Where did you first run across him?
