Leadership Shorts: John Maxwell Says “…..”

• Nobody gets anywhere in life without the help of others.

• If you want people to be impressed talk about your successes, if you want people to identify with • you talk about your failures.

• A procrastinator puts off until tomorrow the things he has already put off until today.

• Your attitude is either your best friend or your worst enemy, your greatest asset or your greatest liability.

• Leadership by definition cannot be a one man show.

• You will acquire the vices & virtues of your closest associates. The fragrance of their lives will pervade your life.

• In the end, people are persuaded not by what we say, but by what they understand.

• Connecting is never about me. It’s about the person with whom I am communicating.

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

• The pessimist complains about the wind. The optimist expects it to change. The leader adjusts the sails.

• A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.

• People don’t care how much you know, until they know how much you care.
