More quotes by John C. Maxwell
God has put a dream inside you. It's yours, and no one else's. It declares your uniqueness. It holds your potential. Only you can birth it. Only you can live it. Not to discover it, take responsibility for it, and act upon it is to negatively affect yourself as well as all those who would benefit from your dream.
John C. Maxwell
The dreams and passions stored within hearts are powerful keys which can unlock a wealth of potential.
John C. Maxwell
Every major difficulty you face in life is a fork in the road. You choose which track you will head down, toward breakdown or breakthrough.
John C. Maxwell
You're only as good as the people you have around you.
John C. Maxwell
The bottom line in managing your emotions is that you should put others – not yourself – first in how you handle and process them. Whether you delay or display your emotions should not be for your own gratification. You should ask yourself, What does the team need? Not, What will make me feel better?
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
Leaders never outgrow the need to change.
John C. Maxwell
We don't grow on accident, we grow on purpose.
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
A person of responsibility can trust himself to choose the right thing over the easy thing.
John C. Maxwell
We won't fully experience joy until we've answered life's biggest question: Why am I here?
John C. Maxwell
Your life begins to change when you change something you do every day.
John C. Maxwell
While a good leader sustains momentum, a great leader increases it.
John C. Maxwell
I think many people believe the best way they can help others is to criticize them, to give them the benefit of their 'wisdom.' I disagree. The best way to help people is to see the best in them.
John C. Maxwell
The greatest detriment to many people's success tomorrow is their thinking today.
John C. Maxwell
Never open a can of worms unless you plan to go fishing.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership is influence.
John C. Maxwell
I wrote the book [Today Matters] because I have a passion to help people personally grow. Really what it is, it's a personal growth book.
John C. Maxwell
People go farther than they thought they could when someone else thinks they can.
