More quotes by John C. Maxwell
An attitude's growth never stops.
John C. Maxwell
Most people who want to get ahead do it backward. They think, 'I'll get a bigger job, then I'll learn how to be a leader.' But showing leadership skill is how you get the bigger job in the first place. Leadership isn't a position, it's a process.
John C. Maxwell
If you wait until you feel like doing something, you will likely never accomplish it.
John C. Maxwell
Ordinary people with commitment can make an extraordinary impact on the their world.
John C. Maxwell
We tend to become what the most important person in our life thinks we will become. Think the best, believe the best, and express the best in others. Your affirmation will not only make you more attractive to them, but you will help play an important part in their personal development.
John C. Maxwell
Cats do what cats do, ducks do what ducks do, and eagles do what eagles, do. If you take a duck and ask it to do an eagles' job, shame on you. As a leader, your job is to help your ducks to become better ducks and your eagles better eagles - to put individuals in the right places and help them reach their potential.
John C. Maxwell
Every person has seeds of greatness within, even though they may currently be dormant.
John C. Maxwell
Don't buy into the notion that mistakes can somehow be avoided. They can't be.
John C. Maxwell
I think once a person realizes that they are every day either sowing into their life either potential success, or sowing into their life potential failure, they would all of a sudden go okay, I've got to figure out what I'm going to do.
John C. Maxwell
Exceptionally hard decisions can deplete your energy to the point at which you finally cave in. If you mentally crumble and degenerate into negative thinking, you'll magnify the problem to the point where it can haunt you.
John C. Maxwell
Why would God send people to our church if we don't have a great dream? Why would God give a multigifted, multitalented, and multifinancially wealthy person to a church if the biggest thing you are going to do is paint the restrooms next year? That's bad stewardship.
John C. Maxwell
It's been said that commitment is another name for success.
John C. Maxwell
Most accomplishments in life come more easily if you approach them strategically
John C. Maxwell
Plan and execute your first failure so that you no longer have to fear it.
John C. Maxwell
The more credible you are, the more confidence people place in you, thereby allowing you the privilege of influencing their lives.
John C. Maxwell
Our attitude is the primary force that will determine whether we succeed or fail.
John C. Maxwell
Dreams don't work unless you do
John C. Maxwell
We have to pilot our own dreams - we cannot entrust them to anyone else.
John C. Maxwell
We overestimate the event and underestimate the process. Every fulfilled dream occurred because of dedication to the process.
John C. Maxwell
Making a difference in your work is not about productivity it’s about people. When you focus on others and connect with them, you can work together to accomplish great things.
John C. Maxwell
