"Leaders must live by higher standards than..." - Quote by John C Maxwell

“You will never change your life until you change something you do daily. The secret of your success is found in your daily routine.”

“Failure is not a one-time event; it's how you deal with life along the way. Until you breathe your last breath, you're still in the process, and there is still time to turn things around for the better.”

“If you have great people around you, they will take you higher than your dream will. Leaders are never self-made. Those closest to you determine your level of success, so choosing the right companions as partners in pursuit of your vision is an important decision. My advice is to surround yourself with talented people who will challenge you, help you grow and inspire you to maximize your potential.”

“When people are unsettled, loyal ministers arise.”

“It's not my job to motivate players. They bring extraordinary motivation to our program. It's my job not to de-motivate them.”

“There is something that is much more scarce, something finer far, something rarer than ability. It is the ability to recognize ability. The sternest comment that can be made against employers as a class lies in the fact that men of Ability usually succeed in showing their worth in spite of their employer, and not with his assistance and encouragement.”

“You know, sometimes I'll go to an 8th-grade graduation and there's all that pomp and circumstance and gowns and flowers. And I think to myself, it's just 8th grade ... An 8th-grade education doesn't cut it today. Let's give them a handshake and tell them to get their butts back in the library!”

“Always fight for quality, whether giving or receiving.”

“Stop bullshitting yourself. You're not satisfied. You lowered your standards and are settling for a lot less.”
