Your future is your own again. And I consider that to be a happy ending to the story.
Anyone who minimizes the importance of success to your future has given up on his or her own chances of accomplishment and is spending his or her life trying to convince others to do the same.
You must always be prepared to place a bet on yourself, on your future, by heading in a direction that others seem to fear.
Don't use the hardships of your past as excuses to deny the possibilities of your future.
You can't base your life on the past or the present. You have to tell me about your future.
If you want respect for your past, it means that you have a problem with your present and even more with your future.
Your dreams are the product of your longings, a portrait of your potential, and a promise of your future.
Setting goals helps bring your future into your present and the present is the only time we can take action.
Unless you loosen the hold that your past has on you, your future will unfold in much the same way . . . it is time to begin writing a new script that accurately reflects the beautiful, powerful, and worthy being you are.
Your future starts today. Don’t go through life looking in the rearview mirror. Your life is filled with possibility.
If you have an idea of what you want to do in your future, you must go at it with almost monastic obsession. [...] You have to go at it single-mindedly and let nothing get in your way.
No matter how dirty your past is, your future is still spotless.
If you keep a clear vision for your future, it will pull you like a magnet through your toughest times.
The thoughts you choose to think and believe right now are creating your future. These thoughts form your experiences, tomorrow, next week, and next year.
When you look to the past, don't sit and dwell on your regrets. Instead, focus on the things you learned from each experience and how they may enrich your future. Use the past not as something to hold you back, but as a method for reaffirming the drive to move forward on your chosen path.
The softer your heart is the less that your past is forming your present and your future. When there is openness and softness of heart, what forms the present and the future is not your past but the reality of your own being.
Your time is too valuable, your destiny is too great, and your future is too bright to waste a single moment. Be a now person.
Sometimes you just have to turn the page to realize there's more to your book of life than the page you're stuck on. Stop being afraid to move on. Close this chapter of hurt, and never re-read it. It's time to get what your life deserves, and move on from the things that don't deserve you. Don't try to fix what's been broken in your past, let your future create something better.
In order to plan your future wisely, it is necessary that you understand and appreciate your past.
You have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future... The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it... Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
Nobody gets to live life backward. Look ahead; that is where your future lies. Opportunities are usually disguised as hard work, so most people don't recognize them. People who care about each other enjoy doing things for one another. There are really only three types of people: those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who say, What happened?
You may have had unfair things happen to you, but the depth of your pain is an indication of the height of your future.
Do battle with the challenges of your present, and you will unlock the prizes of your future.
Don't let your present problems defeat you. The Chinese have a saying that if you live with a disaster for three years it will turn into a blessing. Look back in your own life at what appeared to be a devastating situation five or ten years ago. Many of those situations were the turning point that caused a number of great things to happen in your future. Regardless of what happens today, realize it is the beginning of something good.
In terms of days and moments lived, you'll never again be as young as you are right now, so spend this day, the youth of your future, in a way that deflects regret. Invest in yourself. Have some fun. Do something important. Love somebody extra. In one sense, you're just a kid, but a kid with enough years on her to know that every day is priceless.
