John C. Maxwell
Educators take something simple and make it complicated. Communicators take something complicated and make it simple.
John C. Maxwell
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
To help people believe they can achieve victory, put them in a position to experience small successes.
John C. Maxwell
Inexperienced leaders are quick to lead before knowing anything about the people they intend to lead. But mature leaders listen, learn and then lead.

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