waiting accomplish feels
If you wait until you feel like doing something, you will likely never accomplish it.
believe people leader
People buy into the leader before they buy into the vision. Many people who approach the area of vision in leadership have it backwards. They believe that if the cause is good enough, people will automatically buy in and follow. But that's not how leadership works. People don't follow worthy causes; they follow worthy leaders with a cause they can believe in. They buy into the leader first.
leadership encouragement successful
If you are a leader, you should never forget that everyone needs encouragement. And everyone who receives it - young or old, successful or less-than-successful, unknown or famous - is changed by it.
leadership giving-up mean
Growth demands a temporary surrender of security. It may mean giving up familiar but limiting patterns, safe but unrewarding work, values no longer believed in, and relationships that have lost their meaning.
worry decision should
Once a decision is made, you should stop worrying and start working. It’s not always what we know that makes it a good decision. It is what we do to implement and execute it that makes it a good decision.
inspiring goal discipline
Decision-making takes care of goal-setting, but discipline also takes care of goal-getting. Decisions and discipline can't be separated; one is worthless without the other.
thinking decision important
I had a horrible life habit that I had to change. And I think it's very true, the later we make decisions in life that are important, the harder it is to manage those decisions.
leadership people leader
A leader who develops people adds; a leader who develops leaders multiplies.
people want needs
If you want to attract people, you need to be like people you enjoy being with.
order growth grows
You have to know who you are to grow to your potential. But you have to grow in order to know who you are.
leader limits proportion
Your life expands in proportion to your courage. Fear limits a leader.
book writing people
People say, "John, what's your personal growth?" And ask "How do you grow?" And I tell them. I thought, "Why do I keep telling them, why don't I just write a book on what I call personal growth?" And that's what this [Today Matters] book is.
today tomorrow better-tomorrow
Be better tomorrow than you are today.
encouraging-words underestimate never-underestimate
Never underestimate the power of an encouraging word.
