Achieving success means expecting success, and you can expect the best from Zig Ziglar, the phenomenally popular motivational speaker and author of Success For Dummies. Most people think of success in terms of business and financial wealth, says Ziglar, but the real key to success means having a balanced life.

Here's an inspirational path to success that can make a significant difference in your relationships and your day-to-day life. Ziglar explores all the different formulas for personal and professional success: getting motivated, putting together a strategic plan for success, and setting clear, realistic, and attainable goals in life. Find the right mental attitude, develop fantastic and lasting friendships, maintain optimal physical health, be a successful parent, build better working relationships, and rekindle the romance of marriage with these great self-help skills and solutions.

And remember: Success is a process, says Ziglar, not an event.
