John C. Maxwell Quote

I believe all of us can identify with the poet Carl Sandberg, who said, There is an eagle in me that wants to soar and a hippopotamus in me that wants to wallow in the mud. The key to success is following the impulse to soar more than the desire to wallow. And that is a never-ending struggle—at least it has been for me. I believe any successful person would be honest in saying, I got to the top the hard way—fighting my own laziness and ignorance every step of the way.
