Zig Ziglar shares the true story of a Texas landowner who was struggling to support his family. A drought and a recession pushed him to his wits end searching for solutions when he was approached by an oil company. They informed him that there might be oil on his land and offered to pay him royalties for permission to drill. With nothing to lose, the landowner agreed.
In those days, oil derricks were built of wood and when you hit a gusher, the force of it would destroy part of the oil derrick. Well, when this gusher came in it destroyed the entire derrick. The drilling was a success as the oil company discovered “Spindletop,” the most productive single oil well in history!
The landowner went from being a pauper to an instant multimillionaire—or did he? Actually the answer is “no.”
“A lot of people have an awful lot underneath the surface, but until they bring it to the marketplace, they’ll never realize the full benefit of what they have.”
― Zig Ziglar (1926 – 2012)
