Leadership & Decisiveness

The most valuable gift a leader can give is a good example.

Put others before yourself, and you become a leader among men.

No man will be a great leader who wants to do it all himself and get all the credit for it. (Andrew Carnegie)

A good leader , they say, is someone who can step on your toes without messing up your shine.

Develop your abilities while discovering the abilities of others.

When you find a leader, follow, and when you identify a leader, lead.

A leader has to know his job. If you want people to follow you, you have to know where you are going. (Joe Nameth)

Leaders are not born, they are made and they are made through effort and hard work.

A leader is interested in finding the best way, not his own way. (John Wooden)

It's not important that you know that you know, it's important that you show that you know.

True Christian leadership starts with servant hood.

A leader always stays positive no matter the circumstances.

Great leaders are rarely "realistic" by other peoples standards.

A good leader inspires men to have confidence in him, a great leader inspires them to have confidence in themselves.

A person doing his or her best becomes a natural leader, just by example. (Joe Damagio)

Try to empower, rather than control anyone who looks to you for leadership.

One of the sobering characteristics of leadership is that leaders are judged to a greater degree than followers.

If you don't decide to succeed then you have already decided to fail.

If you will make the decision, your subconscious will make the provision.

People often complain of lack of time when lack of decision is the main problem.

Places and circumstances never guarantee happiness, you have to decide within yourself to be happy. (Robert J. Hastings)

Success is just a decision away.

Don't ask time where it has gone, tell it where to go.

The greater control you exercise over your time, the greater freedom you will experience in your life.

When you refuse to change, you end up in chains.

If you don't decide for yourself, someone else will.

Either you will control your destiny or someone else will control it for you.

Success is the result of a decision, an adjustment of your life to the will of God, guidance means I can count on God, Commitment means that God can count on me.

Taking the offensive is not just an action taken outside a person, it is always a decision made within.

When you choose to be on the offensive, the atmosphere of your life will begin to change.

Being decisive, being focused, committing ourselves to the fulfillment of a dream, greatly increases our chance for success.

Success is not a matter of chance, it's a matter of choice.

A compromise will almost always be more expensive than either of the alternatives.

There comes a time when we must choose the cause in life which we will follow, or the relentless drift of events will make the decisions for us.

Lack of decisiveness has caused more failures than lack of intelligence or ability.

People at first don't follow worthy causes, they follow worthy leaders, people buy into the leader first then the leader's vision.

Never make a big decision on low tide of your life, it is almost certain it will be the wrong decision.

"The difference between whether you say, 'I wish I would have,' or 'I'm glad I did,' at the end of your life is whether or not you take decisive action during your life." (Chris Widener)
