More quotes by John C. Maxwell
There is a world of difference between a person who has a big problem and a person who makes a problem big.
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
My leadership began to take flight when I allowed myself to press people to change-whether they thanked me or cursed me.
John C. Maxwell
Achievement comes to someone when he is able to do great things for himself. Success comes when he empowers followers to do great things with him. Significance comes when he develops leaders to do great things for him. But a legacy is created only when a person puts his organization into the position to do great things without him.
John C. Maxwell
If your desire is a 10 but your self-esteem is a 5, you'll never perform at the level of a 10. You'll perform as a 5 or lower. People are ever able to outperform their self-image.
John C. Maxwell
The first person you lead is you.
John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
An organization cannot increase its productivity-but people can!
John C. Maxwell
No matter what our circumstances, our greatest limitation isn't the leader above us - it's the spirit within us.
John C. Maxwell
In most cases, those who want power probably shouldn't have it, those who enjoy it probably do so for the wrong reasons, and those who want most to hold on to it don't understand that it's only temporary.
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
If you are willing to change your thinking, you can change your feelings. If you change your feelings, you can change your actions. And changing your actions - based on good thinking - can change your life.
John C. Maxwell
If your job is not making a difference in this world, by all means, get out there and find something else ... You’ll find a sense of making a difference through your work if you simply look for it.
John C. Maxwell
You have to know who you are to grow to your potential. But you have to grow in order to know who you are.
John C. Maxwell
The greatest day in your life and mine is when we take total responsibility for our attitudes. That's the day we truly grow up.
John C. Maxwell
People create success in their lives by focusing on today. It may sound trite, but today is the only time you have. It's too late for yesterday. And you can't depend on tomorrow. That's why today matters. Most of the time we miss that.
John C. Maxwell
Plan and execute your first failure so that you no longer have to fear it.
John C. Maxwell
Realizing your potential as a leader is your responsibility.
John C. Maxwell
No matter your title, people will not follow you if they don’t trust you.
John C. Maxwell
If you are in a leadership position, do not rely on your title to convince people to follow you. Build relationships. Win people over. Do that and you will never be a lonely leader.
John C. Maxwell
