More quotes by John C. Maxwell
The true measure of leadership is influence - nothing more, nothing less.
John C. Maxwell
There is no such thing as a perfect flawless attitude.
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
A man must be big enough to admit his mistakes, smart enough to profit from them, and strong enough to correct them.
John C. Maxwell
Your success stops where your character stops. You can never rise above the limitations of your character.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership is influence. It is the ability to obtain followers. When the leader lacks confidence, the followers have no commitment. A leader is great not because of his power, but because of his ability to empower others.
John C. Maxwell
When I made that statement that the person discovers the secret of their success by their daily agenda, all of a sudden it hit me that if I could teach people to make today count if I could really teach them what they need to do today to have a good day, that tomorrow would really take care of itself.
John C. Maxwell
I do a lot of conferences, a lot of leadership training. For about six or seven years I've been making this statement - every time I make it, I can see people just kind of - it's just one of those light bulb moments.
John C. Maxwell
..Our level of influence is not the same with everyone.
John C. Maxwell
People go farther than they thought they could when someone else thinks they can.
John C. Maxwell
The leader's attitude helps determine the attitudes of the followers.
John C. Maxwell
What am I doing with the gifts that have been given and the opportunities that are mine to make things better for others? I think it's always - success has to be beyond the person who is themselves working for personal success. It's also got to be helping someone else.
John C. Maxwell
If something can be done 80% as well by someone else, delegate!
John C. Maxwell
We over-exaggerate yesterday. We either think it was better or worse than it was - you know, the good old days. We over-estimate tomorrow we think we can do more than we can - always. And that's why we put off everything till tomorrow.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership has less to do with position than it does with disposition.
John C. Maxwell
If your face is going to “talk” for you anyway, you might as well have it communicate something positive.
John C. Maxwell
You've got to love your people more than your position.
John C. Maxwell
When the leader lacks confidence, the followers lack commitment.
John C. Maxwell
The purpose of leadership is to take others to the top. And when you take others who might not make it to the top otherwise, there's no other feeling like it in the world. To those who have never had the experience, you can't explain it. To those who have, you don't need to.
John C. Maxwell
It is the leaders job to add significance to the lives of the people he leads.
John C. Maxwell
