Bruce Wilkinson Quotes

While I take inspiration from the past, like most Americans, I live for the future.

It behooves everyone to move forward, think forward.

Remember how far you've come, not just how far you have to go. You are not where you want to be, but neither are you where you used to be.

Yeah, it's been a ride I guess I had to go to that place to get to this one Now some of you might still be in that place If you're trying to get out, just follow me I'll get you there

There's always another record, then there's always another person to catch up with or to pass.

Life is about movement, expansion, growth, and actualizing potential. If you stay in a home, relationship, or job beyond the time it is healthy for you, the universe will prod you with thorns as if to say, “It’s time to move to a broader domain.” If you do not heed the message, the thorns will get sharper and at some point you will have no choice but to fly. When you do, you will understand why a once comfortable situation became uncomfortable.

I don't think about my old stuff. I just move forward.

Today, you've got a decision to make. You're gonna get better or you're gonna get worse, but you're not gonna stay the same. Which will it be?

Sometimes you got to start somewhere. And it's cool, as long as where you start is not where you plan on finishing.

I know change can be painful. But from change comes growth.

Remember, the past need not become our future as well.

You can have more, be more and do more because you can change the person you are.

You can't look back - you just have to put the past behind you, and find something better in your future.

As exciting, difficult, and memorable as our past can be, there comes a time when we have to get on with living.

If you don't change your schedule, you'll be the same person you've always been.

Life, after all, should go forwards, not backwards.

I didn't like where I once was, so I promised myself I wouldn't be back there.

You just do the best you can. It doesn't necessarily mean that you have to get worse the more you do it. It can get better, I think... aspects of it, anyway. I mean, I don't write as much as I used to. But I don't do a lot of things as much as I used to. So that's the natural order of things, too. You're more or less living in the present. You're just trying to get that next song, whatever it is. And not think too much about what happened on the last record, or the record you made 20 years ago, because those are over with. Those are done.

I'm at the point where going forward is easier than going back.

A person can't change all at once.

The first step to living the life you want is leaving the life you don't want. Taking that first step forward is always the hardest. But then each step forward gets easier and easier. And each step forward gets you closer and closer. Until eventually, what had once been invisible, starts to be visible. And what had once felt impossible, starts to feel possible.

The past is for inspiration, not imitation, for continuation, not repetition.

One can never go back. One always has to move forward.

Don't go backwards - you've already been there.

In order to do great things, you must be unafraid to recreate yourself. You can't do that holding on to a glory from yesterday.
