Quotes about Letting go

How you begin each day is one of the most important things in life. Your mood, your purpose, even your success in life is dependent on it. When you get up hopeful, expecting good things, and letting go of things in the past — that's when you're in a flow with God.
- Joel Osteen
Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland." Isaiah 43:18—19
- Joel Osteen
Being offended, upset, and frustrated over what didn't work out will only keep you in mediocrity. It's time to drop it and move forward. You may be a product of your past, but you don't have to be a prisoner of your past.
- Joel Osteen
You have to accept that some people are not going to be for you and that's okay. You don't need them to fulfill your destiny. Your job is to guard your heart. Don't let the offense, the bitterness, the poison get in. You do your part and God will do His part.
- Joel Osteen
I wonder where you could be at this time next year if you would start kissing things goodbye. Kiss the offense goodbye. Quit letting people hurt your feelings. Quit letting what they say ruin your day. Tune it out.

You have to forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. Don't let the hurts, the bad breaks, the times you were taken advantage of sour the rest of your life, cause you to live with a chip on your shoulder. God knows how to vindicate you. He knows how to pay you back.
- Joel Osteen
If you're dwelling on the past, you won't see the new thing. If you're focused on who hurt you and what wasn't fair, then you'll miss your destiny. God is saying, forget the former things, quit dwelling on your mistakes. This is a new day.
- Joel Osteen
Too often, we're holding on to hurts, disappointments, things we don't understand. This poisons our attitude, takes our passion, makes us negative & critical. You have to let it go. Quit going back to it. It's over and done. Move forward.
- Joel Osteen
Oftentimes the reason we don't forgive is because what the other person did was wrong. They were clearly at fault. But when you forgive, you're not excusing their behavior. You're not lessening the offense; you're simply getting the poison out of you. You have to forgive so you can be free.
- Joel Osteen
When you let go of the need for any and all outcomes life becomes a creative magical adventure.
- Deepak Chopra
Destructive emotions, such as anger, hatred, and jealousy don't hurt others; they hurt you. They can make your life miserable. They can make you sick. Forgive everyone who ever hurt you—really forgive them—and then forgive yourself. That's all past.
- Earl Nightingale
It's gude to be merry and wise,It's gude to be honest and true;It's gude to be off with the old love,Before you are on with the new.
