More quotes by John C. Maxwell
The only one you should compare yourself to is you. Your mission is to become better today than you were yesterday.
John C. Maxwell
Achievement comes to someone when he is able to do great things for himself. Success comes when he empowers followers to do great things with him. Significance comes when he develops leaders to do great things for him. But a legacy is created only when a person puts his organization into the position to do great things without him.
John C. Maxwell
If you treat every person you meet as if he or she were the most important person in the world, you'll communicate that he or she is somebody - to you.
John C. Maxwell
Success comes to those who have an entire mountain of gold that they continually mine, not those who find one nugget and try to live on it for fifty years.

John C. Maxwell
To gain credibility, you must consistently demonstrate three things: Initiative: You have to get up to go up. Sacrifice: You have to give up to go up. Maturity: You have to grow up to go up. If you show the way, people will want to follow you. The higher you go, the greater the number of people who will be willing to travel with you.
John C. Maxwell
Change is inevitable. Growth is optional.
John C. Maxwell
The best way a mentor can prepare another leader is to expose him or her to other great people.
John C. Maxwell
What I did in the book [Today Matters] is I tried to help a person make their day - every day - their masterpiece.
John C. Maxwell
All leaders make mistakes. They are a part of life. Successful leaders recognize their errors, learn from them, and work to correct their faults.
John C. Maxwell
Teamwork gives you the best opportunity to turn vision into reality.
John C. Maxwell
You can easily determine the caliber of a person by the amount of opposition it takes to discourage him or her.
John C. Maxwell
Leaders who fail to prune their pride will meet demise. That's not a guess, it's a guarantee. With pride, it's not a matter of 'if' we will fall, but 'when.' There are no exceptions.
John C. Maxwell
You can't be a smart cookie if you have a crummy attitude.
John C. Maxwell
