Zig Ziglar Quotes

When wrong people leave your life, wrong things stop happening

I just don't want to live like I used to. And at some point, I'm going to put a gag order on myself in terms of talking about the past. I've got to slam the door and deal with the present and the future.

We all carry our past. But it is a case of getting on with your life and improving it, if you want to.

Do not wallow in your failure. Spend some time grieving, learn from it, and then move on. Constantly replaying what went wrong will not benefit you. Get involved in another company, another cause, another relationship.

Don't waste another moment crying over what went wrong! If it wasn't a blessing - it was a lesson.

What is past is past. You can do nothing about yesterday and last month and the failures of last year, but you can do everything toward making tomorrow and the rest of your life what you always dreamed it could be.

Yesterday ended last night. Every day is a new beginning. Learn the skill of forgetting. And move on.

Never be afraid to let people go if they're not right; often that's the only way you can make room for the right person.

Many people have come and left, and it has been always good because they emptied some space for better people. It is a strange experience, that those who have left me have always left places for a better quality of people. I have never been a loser.

You've got to make a conscious choice every day to shed the old - whatever "the old" means for you.

I think it's a very healthy thing to learn from what's happened in the past. But only if you look at what happened and think, 'How could I have dealt with that differently?' Then let it go.

I stopped thinking about it after trying to figure out what are the lessons learned, and there are so many. After I had basically sorted that out, I figured it's time to really look at the future and not at the past.

Every day is a new day, and you'll never be able to find happiness if you don't move on.

When I hung up my toe shoes, I didn't look back. In all my years, I have never looked back.

I don't want to return to the past. I don't yearn for when I was 18 years old. I was in high school then. I had acne. I had a terrible hairdo. I'm sure I was sporting polyester pants.

You can only whine for so long. Then you need to get your life back.

You don't have to stay where you are; you can make a change.

Every minute brings a new opportunity. Every minute brings new growth, new experiences.

If there is someone in your life who is not serving you or making you better, give yourself permission to move on.

My life has gotten so much better since I turned 40.

I believe everything negative that happens in your life is for a positive reason. If your heart breaks, you know that you are a human being and it happens. But you can't mope over it. There's only one life. You better get on ahead and fast. Fast enough not to let your past ever catch up with you.

As you learn who you are, you can better surround yourself with friends who make you a better person, and that sometimes only happens when you disassemble old relationships.

I think all the bad things I have been through are in the past. I believe I am on the right path now, dealing with the people who can help me, the right kind of people.

I feel like I've started a new chapter in my life, and I need to leave the past behind.

There is always a time to move on.
