John C. Maxwell
The key to your success, to my success, to everyone's success is determined by our daily agenda. What you and I do every day is either making us or breaking us, we're either preparing or repairing. So when somebody says, 'John, I want to be a success. Where do I start?' I say, It's very simple. Start with today.
John C. Maxwell
When a leader reaches out in passion, he is usually met with an answering passion.
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
The whole idea of motivation is a trap. Forget motivation. Just do it. Exercise, lose weight, test your blood sugar, or whatever. Do it without motivation. And then, guess what? After you start doing the thing, that's when the motivation comes and makes it easy for you to keep on doing it.
John C. Maxwell
Don't hide bad news. With multiple information channels available, bad news always becomes known. Be candid right from the start.
John C. Maxwell
Character makes trust possible, and trust is the foundation of leadership.
John C. Maxwell
What you are going to be tomorrow, you are becoming today.
John C. Maxwell
When you nurture people and add value to them without expecting anything in return, they feel significant.
John C. Maxwell
The longer you wait to do something you should do now, the greater the odds that you will never actually do it.
John C. Maxwell
Nobody ever got ready by waiting. You only get ready by starting.
John C. Maxwell
If you wait until you feel like doing something, you will likely never accomplish it.
John C. Maxwell
People will summarize your life in one sentence - Pick it now.
John C. Maxwell
If churches would take ownership of a vision, the next pastor who is thinking about coming to that church can see what their vision is and then determine if their vision fits with his or her ministry. If it doesn't, then it would be wrong for that pastor to come to that church.
John C. Maxwell
Before you can do anything else in the lives of others, you must show them love.
John C. Maxwell
