More quotes by John C. Maxwell

John C. Maxwell
As a leader, the first person I need to lead is me. The first person that I should try to change is me.

God wants to be our partner throughout life. Too often we are tempted to either carry the entire load ourselves or give everything to God and do nothing. God doesn't like either strategy. Sometimes He moves before us and sometimes after us - but He doesn't move without us. Without God... we cannot. Without us... God will not.
John C. Maxwell

Life can be boring unless you put some effort into it.
John C. Maxwell
What I had been taught all my life was not true: experience is not the best teacher! Some people learn and grow as a result of their experience some people don't. Everybody has some kind of experience. It's what you do with that experience that matters.
John C. Maxwell
If you want to become a better listener, however you need to learn to direct that energy and attention positively by concentrating on the person you're with.
