You can't change *anybody*

“I came to realize that really I can’t change anybody. I could counsel with them, I could coach them, I could lead them, I could hold up the mirror for them and everything. But ultimately change has to come from them. It dawned on me that if they didn’t change themselves, if they didn’t have the desire and the will to change I couldn’t change them.”

Don Soderquist quoted in George Barna’s newest book, Master Leaders, Barna © 2009, p 2
