We All Begin with Ourselves | MWM
We All Begin With Ourselves = All leadership begins with yourself. When you first step into leadership, you often start alone—with no one yet to lead. Very quickly, you realize that leadership isn’t a solo act. You need others to grow, and your growth depends on a team. As you mature in your leadership, your perspective shifts—leadershift—and you recognize that while you can do many things, you can’t do everything.

Example Quotes

Quotes About Example
  • Somebody will always break your records. It is how you live that counts. -- Earl Campbell (NFL fullback)
  • Example, whether it be good or bad, has a powerful influence. --GEORGE WASHINGTON







People Do What People See, Not What You Tell Them | MWM
Be An Example = In his book, The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, John Maxwell discusses the Law of the Picture, which says that people do what people see. Leadership is visual. When you act as an example and display the behaviors you want your people to replicate, the people you lead are more likely to perform with that desired behavior–because they can see it.

Government Quotes

Quotes About Government
  • Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him, better take a closer look at the American Indian.   Henry Ford
  • A sacred respect for the constitutional law is the vital principle, the sustaining energy of a free government. --Alexander Hamilton, Essay in the American Daily Advertiser, 1794
  • The foundations of our national policy will be laid in the pure and immutable principles of private morality, and the preeminence of free government be exemplified by all the attributes which can win the affections of its citizens, and command the respect of the world. --George Washington, First Inaugural Address, 1789
  • The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men. --PLATO
  • If men were angels, no government would be necessary. --James Madison
  • The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help. --RONALD REAGAN
  • December 22, 1820, to celebrate of the 200 year anniversary of the Pilgrim landing at Plymouth Rock, Webster declared: Lastly, our ancestors established their system of government on morality and religious sentiment. Moral habits, they believed, cannot safely be trusted on any other foundation than religious principle, nor any government be secure which is not supported by moral habits....Whatever makes men good Christians, makes them good citizens... Finally, let us not forget the religious character of our origin. Our fathers were brought hither by their high veneration for the Christian religion. They journeyed by its light, and labored in its hope. They sought to incorporate its principles with the elements of their society, and to diffuse its influence through all their institutions, civil, political, or literary. Let us cherish these sentiments, and extend this influence still more widely; in full conviction that this is the happiest society which partakes in the highest degree of the mild and peaceful spirit of Christianity.

Romans 13:1-7 ESV Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer. Therefore one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God's wrath but also for the sake of conscience. ...
Acts 5:29 ESV But Peter and the apostles answered, “We must obey God rather than men.
1 Peter 2:13-17 ESV Be subject for the Lord's sake to every human institution, whether it be to the emperor as supreme, or to governors as sent by him to punish those who do evil and to praise those who do good. For this is the will of God, that by doing good you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish people. Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God. Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the emperor.
1 Timothy 2:1-2 ESV First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way.
