- John C. Maxwell
About this Quote
This quote by John C. Maxwell encourages us to prioritize our time and energy. It suggests that we need to be selective in what we select to do and focus on the important things that are crucial. By finding out to say "no" to the good, we can free up our time and resources to say "yes" to the very best. This suggests that we need to bear in mind our commitments and focus on the activities that will bring us the most benefit. It is necessary to recognize that we can refrain from doing everything and that we need to be selective in order to take advantage of our time. By finding out to say "no" to the great, we can make sure that we are saying "yes" to the very best.
"Don't lower your expectations to meet your performance. Raise your level of performance to meet your expectations. Expect the best of yourself, and then do what is necessary to make it a reality"
