Limits Quotes

Quotes About Limit 

  • Once we accept our limits, we go beyond them.' --ALBERT EINSTEIN
  • But out of limitations comes creativity. --Debbie Allen, American Actress (1950-  )
  • Not being able to fully understand God is frustrating but it is ridiculous for us to think we have the right to limit God to something we are capable of comprehending. What a stunted, insignificant god that would be! If my mind is the size of a soda can and God is the size of all the oceans, it would be stupid for me to say He is only the small amount of water I can scoop into my little can. God is so much bigger, so far beyond our time-encased, air/food/sleep-dependent lives. --Francis Chan
  • There is freedom within limits, and within those limits, our prayers can change things. --R. C. Sproul

NO LIMITS: Special Guest Nick Vujicic Hijacks


Make the Sky Your Limit
https://youtu.be/OxSc-p1cMwk
In life, people tend to be their own worst limiters. In leadership, these limits—associated with your attitudes, practices and bad habits—can keep you weighted down and fenced in, making life and business more difficult than it needs to be. Life is hard. But you can make it easier by removing those limits. 



Leadership Limitations: Can You Lead Everyone? (Part 1) (Maxwell Leadership Podcast)
Do you think great leaders have the ability to lead anyone and everyone? The answer may surprise you. You see, there are factors that limit how far others are able to go and how far we, as leaders, can take them. Today, Mark Cole and Traci Morrow begin a new series on Leadership Limitations. 
In part one, John Maxwell will teach the four major factors that determine the limitations of the people we lead. Next week, in part two, John will teach on the five factors that determine how far we, as leaders, can take our people. Plus, Traci Morrow shares some insights from her new book, 
Our BONUS resource for this series is the “Leadership Limitations Worksheet,” which includes fill-in-the-blank notes from John’s teaching. You can download the worksheet by visiting MaxwellPodcast.com/Limit and clicking “Download the Bonus Resource.”

Scriptures
1 Corinthians 10:13 (MSG) No test or temptation that comes your way is beyond the course of what others have had to face. All you need to remember is that God will never let you down; he’ll never let you be pushed past your limit; he’ll always be there to help you come through it.
1 Thessalonians 2:16 (NIV) in their effort to keep us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they may be saved. In this way they always heap up their sins to the limit. The wrath of God has come upon them at last.
John 3:34 For he is sent by God. He speaks God’s words, for God gives him the Spirit without limit.
Jude 1:6 And I remind you of the angels who did not stay within the limits of authority God gave them but left the place where they belonged. God has kept them securely chained in prisons of darkness, waiting for the great day of judgment.

Quit Quotes

Quotes About Quit 


  • Darkness comes. In the middle of it, the future looks blank. The temptation to quit is huge. Don't. You are in good company... You will argue with yourself that there is no way forward. But with God, nothing is impossible. He has more ropes and ladders and tunnels out of pits than you can conceive. Wait. Pray without ceasing. Hope. --John Piper
  • Humans are creatures of habit. If you quit when things get tough, it gets that much easier to quit the next time. On the other hand, if you force yourself to push through it, the grit begins to grow in you. --Travis Bradberry 
  • If you believe in yourself and have dedication and pride - and never quit, you'll be a winner. The price of victory is high but so are the rewards. --Bear Bryant

  • Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever. --Lance Armstrong 
  • The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing. --Walt Disney

People Don’t Quiet Organizations; They Quit People | MWM
Invest In Relationships = Everyone feels like quitting sometimes, especially when they don’t feel valued. People leave people not organizations. In order to get the best out of people, organizations must invest in relationships … And train better leaders. It is important to invest in leadership training. 



Quiet Quitting Is a New Name for an Old Problem
Quiet Quitting is a term that describes someone who has decided to limit their job output to only those things strictly stated in their job description. They do not take on additional assignments, in fact, they have decided to look for ways to do the absolute minimum to complete their job responsibilities. Is this an employee problem or a leadership problem?

Sin Quotes

Quotes About Sin 

  • Sin will take you farther than you want to go, keep you longer than you want to stay and cost you more than you want to pay.
  • There must be a limit to the mistakes one person can make, and when I get to the end of them, then I'll be through with them. That's a very comforting thought. --L. M. MONTGOMERY
  • Men tell us in these days that sin is what you think it is. Well, it is not. Sin is what God thinks it is. You may think according to your own conscience. God thinks according to His. --John G. Lake
  • The Steps to Folly as well as Sin are gradual, and almost imperceptible, and when we are once on the Decline, we go down without taking notice on't. --Mary Astell, English Writer (1666-1731)
  • All governments suffer a recurring problem: Power attracts pathological personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it is magnetic to the corruptible. --FRANK HERBERT
  • People do not drift toward Holiness. Apart from grace-driven effort, people do not gravitate toward godliness, prayer, obedience to Scripture, faith, and delight in the Lord. We drift toward compromise and call it tolerance; we drift toward disobedience and call it freedom; we drift toward superstition and call it faith. We cherish the indiscipline of lost self-control and call it relaxation; we slouch toward prayerlessness and delude ourselves into thinking we have escaped legalism; we slide toward godlessness and convince ourselves we have been liberated. --D. A. Carson
  • Sin and the child of God are incompatible. They may occasionally meet; they cannot live together in harmony --John Stott
  • The Bible will keep you from sin, or sin will keep you from the Bible. --Dwight L. Moody

Sin
SIN, n.
1. The voluntary departure of a moral agent from a known rule of rectitude or duty, prescribed by God; any voluntary transgression of the divine law, or violation of a divine command; a wicked act; iniquity. Sin is either a positive act in which a known divine law is violated, or it is the voluntary neglect to obey a positive divine command, or a rule of duty clearly implied in such command. Sin comprehends not action only, but neglect of known duty, all evil thoughts purposes, words and desires, whatever is contrary to God's commands or law. 1 John 3. Mat 15. James 4. Sinner neither enjoy the pleasures of nor the peace of piety. Among divines, sin is original or actual. Actual sin, above defined, is the act of a moral agent in violating a known rule of duty. Original sin, as generally understood, is native depravity of heart to the divine will, that corruption of nature of deterioration of the moral character of man, which is supposed to be the effect of Adam's apostasy; and which manifests itself in moral agents by positive act of disobedience to the divine will, or by the voluntary neglect to comply with the express commands of God, which require that we should love God with all the heart and soul and strength and mind, and our neighbor as ourselves. This native depravity or alienation of affections from God and his law, is supposed to be what the apostle calls the carnal mind or mindedness, which is enmity against God, and is therefore denominated sin or sinfulness. Unpardonable sin, or blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, is supposed to be a malicious and obstinate rejection of Christ and the gospel plan of salvation, or a contemptuous resistance made to the influences and convictions of the Holy Spirit. Mat 12.
2. A sin-offering; an offering made to atone for sin. He hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin. 2 Cor 5.
3. A man enormously wicked. [Not in use.]
4. Sin differs from crime, not in nature, but in application. That which is a crime against society, is sin against God.

Scriptures
Proverbs 22:8 (MSG) Whoever sows sin reaps weeds, and bullying anger sputters into nothing.
Romans 7:13 (MSG) I can already hear your next question: “Does that mean I can’t even trust what is good [that is, the law]? Is good just as dangerous as evil?” No again! Sin simply did what sin is so famous for doing: using the good as a cover to tempt me to do what would finally destroy me. By hiding within God’s good commandment, sin did far more mischief than it could ever have accomplished on its own.
Romans 3:23 for all did sin, and are come short of the glory of God --
Proverbs 21:4 (MSG) Arrogance and pride—distinguishing marks in the wicked— are just plain sin.
Ezekiel 18:20 The person who sins is the one who will die. The child will not be punished for the parent’s sins, and the parent will not be punished for the child’s sins. Righteous people will be rewarded for their own righteous behavior, and wicked people will be punished for their own wickedness.
Ezekial 18:24 But when a righteous person turns away from his righteousness and does injustice and does the same abominations that the wicked person does, shall he live? None of the righteous deeds that he has done shall be remembered; for the treachery of which he is guilty and the sin he has committed, for them he shall die.
Romans 5:12 When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned.
Jude 16 - These are grumblers, malcontents, following their own sinful desires; they are loud-mouthed boasters, showing favoritism to gain advantage.
1 John 5:17 All wrongdoing is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to death.
1 John 5:18 - We know that everyone who has been born of God does not keep on sinning, but he who was born of God protects him, and the evil one does not touch him.
1 John 3:9 - No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God’s seed abides in him; and he cannot keep on sinning, because he has been born of God.

    Excel Quotes

    Quotes About Excelling
    • The spirit, the will to win, & the will to excel are the things that endure. Vince Lombardi
    • You can Never Give Up and Never Quit because if you really think about it, there are a multitude of other people who are relying on you to excel and succeed in achieving your goals and objectives.
    • I've never viewed myself as exceptionally talented. I've considered myself slightly above average in talent. Where I excel is with a ridiculous, sickening work ethic. While the other guy's sleeping, I'm working. While the other guy's eating, I'm working. While the other guy's making love, I'm making love, too, but I'm working really hard at it!
    • If you can't excel with talent, triumph with effort. -- Stephen G Weinbaum
    • It's difficult to excel at something you don't truly enjoy. -- Jack Nicklaus

    • Success = 20% Strategy and 80% Mindset.
    • I had rather excel others in the knowledge of what is excellent, than in the extent of my power and dominion. --Alexander the Great 






    Give Just a Little Extra Today
    Commit To Rising Above = No one wants to be average—stuck in the middle. View being average as something to conquer and rise above. Today, if you consider yourself average, do something above average. Wherever you are in life, increase the positives of who you are by doing a little extra.

    You’re Only as Good as Your Last Effort 
    Whatever you do today, determines your success for tomorrow. If you do not give your best each and every day, on each and every project, to each and every effort, people will question your value the next go-around. To the world, you’re only as good as what you put forth before—what you left people with, a visual, a feeling, an accomplishment, or contrarily, a failure. This doesn’t mean you won’t mess up. But always make sure you’re giving your best. 

    Motivation: How Leaders Inspire Effort
    As a leader yourself, you may know how difficult it can be to lead an unmotivated team, and how fulfilling it can be to lead a passionate team. So, how does a leader like yourself motivate the people you lead to create powerful, positive impact? 
    Today, John Maxwell will teach you about motivation and the 4 P’s that inspire effort in your team. After John’s lesson, Mark Cole and Traci Morrow––the master of motivation herself––will dive into John’s lesson and offer practical, intentional ways you can apply these principles to your life.
