“One of the reasons people don’t achieve their dreams is that they desire to change their results without changing their thinking.”

John C. Maxwell

“If you lead a team, start asking questions and really listening. Start valuing the contributions of your teammates ahead of your own. And remember that when the best idea wins, so does the entire team.”

John C. Maxwell

“I state in my book Put Your Dream to the Test that the more valid reasons a person has to achieve their dream, the higher the odds are that they will. Valid reasons also increase the odds that a person will follow through with personal growth.”

John C. Maxwell

“Novelist Victor Hugo believed, "He who every morning plans the transactions of the day and follows out that plan carries a thread that will guide him through the labyrinth of the most busy life . . . But where no plan is laid, where the disposal of time is surrendered merely to the chance of incident, chaos will soon reign.”

John C. Maxwell

“Every message that people receive is filtered through the messenger who delivers it.”

John C. Maxwell

“application phase of the thinking process, land your ideas first with… Yourself: Landing an idea with yourself will give you integrity. People will buy into an idea only after they buy into the leader who communicates it. Before teaching any lesson, I ask myself three questions: “Do I believe it? Do I live it? Do I believe others should live it?” If I can’t answer yes to all three questions, then I haven’t landed it. Key Players: Let’s face it, no idea will fly if the influencers don’t embrace it. After all, they are the people who carry thoughts from idea to implementation. Those Most Affected: Landing thoughts with the people on the firing line will give you great insight. Those closest to changes that occur as a result of a new idea can give you a “reality read.” And that’s important, because sometimes even when you’ve diligently completed the process of creating a thought, shaping it, and stretching it with other good thinkers, you can still miss the mark.”

John C. Maxwell

“NBA superstar David Robinson remarked, “I think any player will tell you that individual accomplishments help your ego, but if you don’t win, it makes for a very, very long season. It counts more that the team has played well.”

“It’s about attitude.”

John C. Maxwell

“The way President Abraham Lincoln is said to have handled a person who had a know-it-all attitude. Lincoln asked, “How many legs will a sheep have if you call a tail a leg?”  “Five,” the man answered. “No,” replied Lincoln, “he’ll still have four, because calling a tail a leg doesn’t make it one.” 

John C. Maxwell

“Followers tell you what you want to hear. Leaders tell you what you need to hear.”

John C. Maxwell

“Failure isn't failure if you do better the next time.”

John C. Maxwell

“The bottom line in leadership isn’t how far we advance ourselves but how far we advance others.”

John C. Maxwell

“No one can produce great things who is not thoroughly sincere in dealing with himself.”

John C. Maxwell

“The first step toward success is taken when you refuse to be a captive of the environment you first find yourself in.” —MARK CAINE”
