I think we impress people by our success, but I think we impact them by our failures.
John C. Maxwell
I think many people believe the best way they can help others is to criticize them, to give them the benefit of their 'wisdom.' I disagree. The best way to help people is to see the best in them.
John C. Maxwell
There was a very cautious man Who never laughed or played He never risked, he never tried, He never sang or prayed. And when he on day passed away, His insurance was denied, For since he never really lived, They claimed he never really died. (Anonymous poem)

We have to pick and choose between good and a little bit better.
John C. Maxwell
Success each day should be judged by the seeds sown, not the harvest reaped.
John C. Maxwell
Real leadership is being the person others will gladly and confidently follow.
John C. Maxwell
A strategy that doesn't take into account resources is doomed to failure.
John C. Maxwell
The happiest people are those who have harvested their time in others. The unhappiest people are those who wonder how the world is going to make them happy.
John C. Maxwell
If you want to achieve great things, you need to have a great dream.
John C. Maxwell
When values, thoughts, feelings, and actions are in alignment, a person becomes focused and character is strengthened.
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
Success comes to those who have an entire mountain of gold that they continually mine, not those who find one nugget and try to live on it for fifty years.
John C. Maxwell
