You can't avoid fear. No magic potion will take it away. And you can't wait for motivation to get you going. To conquer fear, you have to feel the fear and take action anyway.

Leaders provide for their people what the people cannot provide for themselves.
John C. Maxwell
If you don't have the ability to see when to stand up and the conviction to do it, you'll never be an effective leader.
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
The best way a mentor can prepare another leader is to expose him or her to other great people.
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
We over-exaggerate yesterday. We either think it was better or worse than it was - you know, the good old days. We over-estimate tomorrow we think we can do more than we can - always. And that's why we put off everything till tomorrow.
John C. Maxwell
God wants to be our partner throughout life. Too often we are tempted to either carry the entire load ourselves or give everything to God and do nothing. God doesn't like either strategy. Sometimes He moves before us and sometimes after us - but He doesn't move without us. Without God... we cannot. Without us... God will not.
John C. Maxwell
Passion creates energy and magnetically pulls co-workers and customers into a shared vision, and it is exceptionally strong when linked with a leader's values.
John C. Maxwell
People are training for success when they should be training for failure.
John C. Maxwell
Every major difficulty you face in life is a fork in the road. You choose which track you will head down, toward breakdown or breakthrough.
John C. Maxwell
The wrong action done at the wrong time spells disaster The right action done at the wrong time spells resistance The wrong action done at the right time spells mistake but The right action done at the right time spells a miracle
John C. Maxwell
No matter where you are in your leadership journey, never forget that what got you to where you are won't get you to the next level.
John C. Maxwell
To Stay Focused in Life: You can't know everyone You can't do everything You can't go everywhere We have to pick and choose between good and a little bit better.
John C. Maxwell
Working on a weakness within a strength zone will always produce positive results. Working on a weakness outside of the strength zone will not.
John C. Maxwell
Time spent with a potential leader is an investment.
John C. Maxwell
People say, John, what's your personal growth? And ask How do you grow? And I tell them. I thought, Why do I keep telling them, why don't I just write a book on what I call personal growth? And that's what this [Today Matters] book is.
John C. Maxwell
People will summarize your life in one sentence - Pick it now.
