John C. Maxwell

Success each day should be judged by the seeds sown, not the harvest reaped.

Persuasive communication involves enthusiasm, animation, audience participation, authenticity and spontaneity.

A man must be big enough to admit his mistakes, smart enough to profit from them, and strong enough to correct them.

The greatest mistake we make is living in constant fear that we will make one.

There are two kinds of people in this world: those who want to get things done, and those who don't want to make mistakes.

To change your LIFE _x000D_ you need to change your PRIORITIES.

Integrity is the factor that determines which one will prevail. We struggle daily with situations that demand decisions between what we want to do and what we ought to do. Integrity establishes the ground rules for resolving these tensions. it determines who we are and how we will respond before the conflict even appears. Integrity welds what we say, think, and do, into a whole person so that permission is never granted for one of these to be out of sync.

Your attitude towards failure determines your altitude after failure.

Good thinkers always prime the pump of ideas. They always look for things to get the thinking process started, because what you put in always impacts what comes out.

The most talented do not always end up as celebrities, and those with less talent often do. Upsets are written into our history and occur around us every day.

If you want to reach the top, don't run over others. Likely, the only way you'll reach the top is to be carried there by others.

Leaders who are kind of insecure or egocentric, they basically sabotage themselves.

Most people don't like change. They revolt against it unless they can clearly see the advantage it brings. For that reason, when good leaders prepare to take action or make changes, they take people through a process to get them ready for it.

If you don't change the direction you are going, then you're likely to end up where you're heading.

Relational skills are the most important abilities in leadership.

If you can become the leader you ought to be on the inside, you will be able to become the person you want on the outside. People will want to follow you. And when that happens, you'll be able to tackle anything in this world.

Good character improves every aspect of a person’s life.

What you give to help others, builds them up enough that they are able to give to others. It's a cycle that can continue on long after you're dead and gone.

If you treat every person you meet as if he or she were the most important person in the world, you'll communicate that he or she is somebody - to you.

There is no success without failure and losses.

Nothing separates successful people from unsuccessful people more than how they use their time!
