If you show people how much you care and ask questions in a non threatening way, you'll be amazed by how much they'll tell you.
John C. Maxwell
I've known people who thought that reaching their potential would come from shoring up their weaknesses. But do you know what happens when you spend all your time working on your weaknesses and never developing your strengths? If you work really hard, you might claw your way all the way to mediocrity! But you'll never get beyond it.
John C. Maxwell
Others are Ahead of me. I am continually Challenged. My focus is Forward. The atmosphere is Affirming. I am often out of my Comfort Zone. I wake up Excited. Failure is not my Enemy. Others are Growing. People desire Change. Growth is Modeled and Expected.
John C. Maxwell
I literally wrote a book on it called Your Roadmap For Success. And in it I said success is three things: knowing my purpose in life, I think it's impossible for anybody to be successful until they really discover why they're here on earth and what God has planned for them secondly, growing to my maximum potential.
John C. Maxwell
Efficiency is the foundation for survival. Effectiveness is the foundation for success.
John C. Maxwell
Leaders who fail to prune their pride will meet demise. That's not a guess, it's a guarantee. With pride, it's not a matter of 'if' we will fall, but 'when.' There are no exceptions.
John C. Maxwell
As you begin changing your thinking, start immediately to change your behavior. Begin to act the part of the person you would like to become. Take action on your behavior. Too many people want to feel, then take action. This never works.
John C. Maxwell
To go nowhere, follow the crowd.
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
He that thinketh he leadeth and hath no one following him is only taking a walk.
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
Conflict is like cancer early detection increases the possibility of a healthy outcome.
John C. Maxwell
If you can learn to understand people how they think, what they feel, what inspires them, how they're likely to act and react in a given situation- then you can motivate and influence them in a positive way.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership is developed daily, not in a day.
John C. Maxwell
The first person you lead is you.
John C. Maxwell
Be intentional to add value to every person you meet everyday.
John C. Maxwell
Everyone you know and all the people you meet have the potential to be someone important in the lives of others.
John C. Maxwell
When your great players are team players, everybody else follows their lead. The best team doesn't always win - it's usually the team that gets along best.
John C. Maxwell
Goals not only help you develop initial motivation by making your dreams obtainable, but they also help you continue to be motivated and that creates momentum.
