More quotes by 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
Exceptionally hard decisions can deplete your energy to the point at which you finally cave in. If you mentally crumble and degenerate into negative thinking, you'll magnify the problem to the point where it can haunt you.
John C. Maxwell
People are funny. When they are young, they will spend their health to get wealth. Later, they will gladly pay all they have trying to get their health back.
John C. Maxwell
By far the hardest decision I've had to manage [was about my health]. Because I had 51 years of doing it wrong.
John C. Maxwell
People rise and fall to meet your level of expectations for them. If you express skepticism and doubt in others, they will return your lack of confidence with mediocrity. But if you believe in them and expect them to do well, they will go the extra mile trying to do their best.
John C. Maxwell
Our destiny is determined, not by what we possess, but by what possess us.
John C. Maxwell
The purpose of leadership is to take others to the top. And when you take others who might not make it to the top otherwise, there's no other feeling like it in the world. To those who have never had the experience, you can't explain it. To those who have, you don't need to.
John C. Maxwell
If you want to achieve great things, you need to have a great dream.
John C. Maxwell
Our challenge is to think right in a wrong world. Our challenge is to think positive in a negative world.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership is the willingness to put oneself at risk.
John C. Maxwell
Motivation gets you going, but discipline keeps you growing.
John C. Maxwell
You will never change your life until you change something you do daily. Success doesn't just suddenly occur one day in someone's life. Neither does failure. Each is a process. Every day of your life is merely preparation for the next. What you become is the result of what you do today.
John C. Maxwell
You can easily determine the caliber of a person by the amount of opposition it takes to discourage him or her.
John C. Maxwell
If a person doesn't govern his temper, his temper will govern him.
John C. Maxwell
You don't overcome challenges by making them smaller but by making yourself bigger.
John C. Maxwell
Experiences isn't the best teacher - evaluated experience is.
John C. Maxwell
TALENT PROVIDES HOPE FOR ACCOMPLISHMENT, BUT PERSEVERANCE GUARANTEES IT.
John C. Maxwell
You have to know who you are to grow to your potential. But you have to grow in order to know who you are.
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
If you do the things you need to do when you need to do them, then someday you can do the things you want do when you want to do them.
John C. Maxwell
