Before you can do anything else in the lives of others, you must show them love.
John C. Maxwell
Leadership is influence, nothing more, nothing less...titles don't have much value when it comes to leading. True leadership cannot be awarded, appointed, or assigned, it comes only from influence, and that cannot be mandated. It must be earned.
John C. Maxwell
You can change your life if you really want to. You can improve it, make it better. And it all starts with changing the way you think.

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
Facing difficulties is inevitable. Learning from them is optional.
John C. Maxwell

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
The secret to success can be found in people's daily agendas. If they do something intentional to grow every day, they move closer to reaching their potential. If they don't, their potential slowly slips away over the course of their lifetime.
John C. Maxwell
I think we impress people by our success, but I think we impact them by our failures.
John C. Maxwell
