More quotes by John C. Maxwell
Problems almost always create opportunities - to learn, grow and improve.
John C. Maxwell
For the person trying to do everything alone, the game really is over. If you want to do something big, you must link up with others. One is too small a number to achieve greatness. That's the Law of Significance.
John C. Maxwell
A highly credible leader under-promises and over-delivers.
John C. Maxwell
A leader's ability to convey confidence and his ability to communicate effectively are similar.
John C. Maxwell
To achieve your dreams, you must embrace adversity and make failure a regular part of your life. If you're not failing, you're probably not really moving forward.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership is the willingness to put oneself at risk.
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
Anybody who thinks that they are a leader and doesn't have anyone following them is just out for a walk.
John C. Maxwell
The Wrong Person in the Wrong Place = Regression. The Wrong Person in the Right Place = Frustration. The Right Person in the Wrong Place = Confusion. The Right Person in the Right Place = Progression. The Right People in the Right Places = Multiplication.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership is influence, nothing more, nothing less...titles don't have much value when it comes to leading. True leadership cannot be awarded, appointed, or assigned, it comes only from influence, and that cannot be mandated. It must be earned.
John C. Maxwell
..Give them your faith, and they become confident, energized, and self-reliant.
John C. Maxwell
Successful leaders have the courage to take action while others hesitate.
John C. Maxwell
We cannot achieve our wildest dreams by remaining who we are
John C. Maxwell
A manager says 'go,' but a leader says 'let's go'.
John C. Maxwell
I'm not where I'm supposed to be, I'm not what I want to be, But I'm not what I used to be. I haven't learned how to arrive I've just learned how to keep going
John C. Maxwell
The more that people know how they fit on a team, the more they will desire to properly make the most of their fit and maximize their contribution.
John C. Maxwell
