JOHN C. MAXWELL QUOTES II

The best way to ensure success is to start growing today. No matter where you may be starting from, don't be discouraged; everyone who got where he is started where he was.

JOHN C. MAXWELL, Self-Improvement 101

When it comes to money, you can't win. If you focus on making it, you're materialistic. If you try to but don't make any, you're a loser. If you make a lot and keep it, you're a miser. If you make it and spend it, you're a spendthrift. If you don't care about making it, you're unambitious. If you make a lot and still have it when you die, you're a fool--for trying to take it with you. The only way to really win with money is to hold it loosely--and be generous with it to accomplish things of value.

JOHN C. MAXWELL, Motivated to Succeed

Some people like to dabble. The problem with dabbling is that you never really become great at anything. True, when you are young, you should try out new things--see where your strengths and interests lie. But the older you are, the more focused you should be. You can only go far if you specialize in something. If you study the lives of great men and women, you will find that they were very single-minded. Once you have found what you were created to do, stick with it.

What people see is determined by where they sit. They naturally see things from their own perspective, not from anyone else's, including yours.

What people see is influenced by who they are. People in the same room will look at the same things and see everything totally differently.... Each of us has his or her own bent, and that colors our view of everything. What is around us doesn't determine what we see. What is within us does.

You don't have to love change to be successful, but you need to be willing to accept it. Change is a catalyst for personal growth. It gets you out of a rut, it gives you a fresh start, and it affords you an opportunity to reevaluate your direction. If you resist change, you're really resisting success. Learn flexibility, or learn to like living with your failures.
