John C. Maxwell

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
We won't fully experience joy until we've answered life's biggest question: Why am I here?
John C. Maxwell
It's lonely at the top, so you better know why you are there.
John C. Maxwell
I really didn't settle stuff spiritually until I was 17 years of age. But through my teenage years I just knew that someday I had to settle accounts and get things straightened up and move in that direction.
John C. Maxwell
If you want to make your mother happy, talk to her. If you want to make your father happy, listen.
John C. Maxwell
When you are bigger than your purpose you have a career. When your purpose is bigger than you, you have a calling.
John C. Maxwell
Of all the things a leader should fear, complacency heads the list.
