More quotes by 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
To achieve all that is possible, we must attempt the impossible. To be all we can be, we must dream of being more.
John C. Maxwell
Successful leaders have the courage to take action while others hesitate.
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
If you wait until you feel like doing something, you will likely never accomplish it.
John C. Maxwell
Cats do what cats do, ducks do what ducks do, and eagles do what eagles, do. If you take a duck and ask it to do an eagles' job, shame on you. As a leader, your job is to help your ducks to become better ducks and your eagles better eagles - to put individuals in the right places and help them reach their potential.
John C. Maxwell
Everything is a tradeoff. Everywhere you leave, you leave some good things. The more successful you are, the harder it is to make tradeoffs. That's why some people become successful and then become flat. Be willing to give up income for potential, for opportunity.
John C. Maxwell
Always turn to God in the midst of your struggle and view people who offended you as an instruments of divine sovereignty.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership is influence.
John C. Maxwell
One of the best ways to cultivate a possibility mind set is to prompt yourself to dream one size bigger than you normally do. Let's face it, most people dream too small, they don't think big enough.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership development is a lifetime journey, not a quick trip.
John C. Maxwell
The key to your success, to my success, to everyone's success is determined by our daily agenda. What you and I do every day is either making us or breaking us, we're either preparing or repairing. So when somebody says, 'John, I want to be a success. Where do I start?' I say, It's very simple. Start with today.
John C. Maxwell
Good leadership isn't about advancing yourself. It's about advancing your team.
John C. Maxwell
Needless to say, you can love people without leading them, but you cannot lead people without loving them.
John C. Maxwell
