Denis Waitley Past Quotations

Losers live in the past. Winners learn from the past and enjoy working in the present toward the future.

You must learn from your past mistakes, but not lean on your past successes.

Time is an equal opportunity employer. Each human being has exactly the same number of hours and minutes every day. Rich people can't buy more hours. Scientists can't invent new minutes. And you can't save time to spend it on another day. Even so, time is amazingly fair and forgiving. No matter how much time you've wasted in the past, you still have an entire tomorrow.

Live each day as if was your last, not in the future, not in the past. You may not get what you want, but, in the long run, you will get what you expect.

No matter how much time you've wasted in the past, you still have an entire today.

No matter how much time you've wasted in the past, you still have all of tomorrow. Success depends upon using it wisely by planning and setting priorities. The fact is, time is worth more than money, and by killing time we are killing our own chances for success.

Everything that is past is either a learning experience to grow on, a beautiful memory to reflect on, or a motivating factor to act upon.

Winners live each day as if their last. Not in the future, nor in the past, and someday . . . becomes now!
