John C. Maxwell
reality vision fit
Hope is not strategy. Hope fits with vision, but we must have a strategy and a process to make our vision become a reality.

People will work eight hours a day for pay, 10 hours a day for a good boss, and 24 hours a day for a good cause!
moving excuse easier
It is easier to move from failure to success in from excuses to success.
christian prayer focus
We must focus on prayer as the main thrust to accomplish God's will and purpose on earth. The forces against us have never been greater, and this is the only way we can release God's power to become victorious
leadership team heart
Teams make you better than you are, multiply your value, enable you to do what you do best, allow you to help others do their best, give you more time, provide you with companionship, help you fulfill the desires of your heart and compound your vision and effort.
vision failing strategy
Many pastors fail to see God's vision fulfilled because they never have a strategy for fulfilling that vision.
people doe influence
Difficulties seldom defeat people; lack of faith in themselves usually does it.
mean college people
Few things build a person up like affirmation. According to Webster’s New World Dictionary, Third College Edition (Simon and Schuster, 1991), the word affirm comes from ad firmare, which means “to make firm.” So when you affirm people, you make firm within them the things you see about them. Do that often enough, and the belief that solidifies within them will become stronger than the doubts they have about themselves.
leadership excellence crowds
Diligent follow-up and follow-through will set you apart from the crowd and communicate excellence.
success mistake safe
If you aren't making any mistakes, it's a sure sign you're playing it too safe.
passion thinking people
Sometimes I hear people talk about discipline of self and I think, if you don't have passion, I might discipline myself for a week or two but only passion will hold me steady.
leadership character people
Character creates consistency, and if your people know what they can expect from you, they will continue to look to you for leadership.
teach
Experience teaches nothing, but evaluated experience teaches everything.
learning thinking people
As you begin changing your thinking, start immediately to change your behavior. Begin to act the part of the person you would like to become. Take action on your behavior. Too many people want to feel, then take action. This never works.
