Leadership it requires: Action, Vision & Passion

Action without Vision makes us pessimistic.

Action without Compassion makes us legalistic.

Vision without Action makes us moralistic.

Vision without Compassion makes us idealistic.

Compassion without Action makes us unrealistic.

Compassion without Vision makes us fatalistic.

Character - Integrity and Honesty

You can’t spell integrity without the word grit which is defined as “a firmness of mind,” or “unyielding courage.” It takes a great deal of courage or grit to be true to self. In the end, though, it’s worth the effort because our legacies are going to be impacted greatly by our integrity or lack thereof.


-John C. Maxwell
