When pastors ask me if their people will buy this vision, I ask them two questions: Have they bought into your leadership? If they haven't, don't ever try to pass on a vision. Second, Have you processed this vision correctly?

More quotes by John C. Maxwell
Leadership development is a lifetime journey, not a quick trip.
John C. Maxwell
Teamwork makes the dream work, but a vision becomes a nightmare when the leader has a big dream and a bad team.
John C. Maxwell
If you don't have the ability to see when to stand up and the conviction to do it, you'll never be an effective leader.
John C. Maxwell
Personnel determines the potential of the team. Vision determines the direction of the team. Work ethic determines the preparation of the team. Leadership determines the success of the team.
John C. Maxwell
When problems confront successful leaders, they get excited about the opportunity.
John C. Maxwell
Successful people don't make a daily decision to grow. The decision has already been made and just needs to be fed. To feed success you must ... know your purpose in life, grow daily to reach your maximum potential, and sow seeds that benefit others. Remember, success is not a destination it's a daily thing.
John C. Maxwell
Are you a thinker, a doer, or a clutch player? The better you are, the greater potential for influence you will have with your people.
John C. Maxwell
People say, John, what's your personal growth? And ask How do you grow? And I tell them. I thought, Why do I keep telling them, why don't I just write a book on what I call personal growth? And that's what this [Today Matters] book is.
John C. Maxwell
I thought that because I wasn't a sickly person - I never have been - I thought I was healthy. So I assumed health. I didn't have it.
John C. Maxwell
Ordinary people with commitment can make an extraordinary impact on the their world.
John C. Maxwell
Earn the right to be heard by listening to others. Seek to understand a situation before making judgments about it.
John C. Maxwell
Great leaders always have self-discipline -without exception.
John C. Maxwell
No matter where you are in your leadership journey, never forget that what got you to where you are won't get you to the next level.
John C. Maxwell
Remember, in the end, it isn't what you are that holds you back, it's what you think you are not.
John C. Maxwell
By far the hardest decision I've had to manage [was about my health]. Because I had 51 years of doing it wrong.
John C. Maxwell
God has put a dream inside you. It's yours, and no one else's. It declares your uniqueness. It holds your potential. Only you can birth it. Only you can live it. Not to discover it, take responsibility for it, and act upon it is to negatively affect yourself as well as all those who would benefit from your dream.
John C. Maxwell
Every worthwhile accomplishment has a price tag attached to it. The question is always whether you are willing to pay the price to attain it - in hard work, sacrifice, patience, faith, and endurance.
John C. Maxwell
To help people believe they can achieve victory, put them in a position to experience small successes.
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
Teamwork gives you the best opportunity to turn vision into reality.
John C. Maxwell
