More quotes by John C. Maxwell
Want to impress others? Talk about your successes. Want to impact others? Talk about your failures.
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
Leadership is influence, nothing more, nothing less. How do you gain influence from people? You invest in them. How do you invest in them? It starts with giving them time.
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
The best leaders realize their success depends on their people.
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
Some of my best thinking is done by others.
John C. Maxwell
You never display your character more clearly than when you speak about the character of others.
John C. Maxwell
Many times we ask people to march outwardly, when we haven't yet spent the needed time inwardly.
John C. Maxwell
When you realize that people treat you according to how they see themselves rather than how you really are, you are less likely to be affected by their behavior.
John C. Maxwell
God chooses what we go through we choose how we go through it.
John C. Maxwell
We were created for meaningful work, and one of life's greatest pleasures is the satisfaction of a job well done.
John C. Maxwell
An organization cannot increase its productivity-but people can!
John C. Maxwell
Progress is often just a good idea away.
