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
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
Your life expands in proportion to your courage. Fear limits a leader.
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
The first person you lead is you.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership is influence. It is the ability to obtain followers. When the leader lacks confidence, the followers have no commitment. A leader is great not because of his power, but because of his ability to empower others.
John C. Maxwell
Great visions are cast one on one.
John C. Maxwell
All good leaders are connectors. They relate well and make people feel confident about themselves and their leader.
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
Adversity is prosperity to those who possess a great attitude.
