Book Review: Over the Top by Zig Ziglar
Zig Ziglar’s Over the Top (1997) is a classic in the self‑help and motivational genre, written by one of the most influential speakers and trainers of the 20th century. Drawing on decades of experience, Ziglar distills his philosophy into practical lessons for living a balanced, successful, and meaningful life.
Key Themes
- Positive Attitude as Foundation: Success begins with cultivating a positive self‑image and outlook. Ziglar notes, “Until you are happy with who you are, you will never be happy because of what you have.”
- Holistic Success: Success is defined not just by wealth, but by happiness, health, security, and strong relationships.
- Practical Tools: Affirmations, self‑talk, and focusing on strengths are presented in Ziglar’s warm, humorous style.
What Makes It Stand Out
- Timeless Wisdom: Though published in the late 1990s, its principles remain relevant today.
- Inspirational Tone: Ziglar’s writing mirrors his speaking style — energetic, hopeful, and deeply personal.
- Balanced Approach: Integrates emotional well‑being, relationships, and faith into the success equation.
Verdict: Over the Top is more than a motivational book; it’s a blueprint for living with purpose and joy. I have read it, enjoyed it and implemented the lessons learnt in life. This has done wonders in my life. Ziglar’s blend of practical advice and uplifting anecdotes makes it a valuable read for anyone seeking not just career advancement, but a richer, more fulfilling life.
