John C. Maxwell quotes about
service-culture lasts firsts
When was the last time you did something for the first time?
jobs thinking skills
Most people who want to get ahead do it backward. They think, 'I'll get a bigger job, then I'll learn how to be a leader.' But showing leadership skill is how you get the bigger job in the first place. Leadership isn't a position, it's a process.
leadership pain loss
The experience of pain or loss can be a formidably motivating force.
leadership pride advice
Pride deafens us to the advice or warnings of those around us.
leadership two family-and-friends
Family and friendships are two of the greatest facilitators of happiness.
leadership years trying
Success comes to those who have an entire mountain of gold that they continually mine, not those who find one nugget and try to live on it for fifty years.
leadership dream eye
When a person starts to talk about their dreams, it's as if something bubbles up from within. Their eyes brighten, their face glows, and you can feel the excitement in their words.
leadership people close-friends
All of the people in my life whom I consider to be close friends or colleagues are good thinkers.
leadership achievement
Without failure there is no achievement.
leadership people together
Everyone has the potential to become an encourager. You don't have to be rich. You don't have to be a genius. You don't have to have it all together. All you have to do is care about people and initiate.
leadership thinking decision
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.
leadership giving people
People who add value to others do so intentionally. I say that because to add value, leaders must give of themselves, and that rarely occurs by accident.
moving people secret
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.
effectiveness depth mythology
The depth of your mythology is the extent of your effectiveness.
