More quotes by Andy Andrews
Much of your success in life is determined by how you choose to act in spite of how you feel.
Andy Andrews
I always encourage authors (especially new authors) to be as generous as we are blessed. For one thing, it is a way to help people. For another, it is a seed one is planting for the life of the book. Someone gave it to someone who gave it to someone else.
Andy Andrews
We begin to forgive by choosing to forgive . . . by deciding, not by feeling. Our feelings don't lead us to forgive. Most times, our feelings lead us the other way. That's why a person has to decide to forgive first. Our feelings always follow along behind our decisions.
Andy Andrews
A committed heart does not wait for conditions to be exactly right. Why? Because conditions are never exactly right. Indecision limits The Almighty and His ability to perform miracles in your life. He has put the vision in you - proceed! To wait, to wonder, to doubt, to be indecisive is to disobey God.
Andy Andrews
Keep your head and heart clear. Perspective can just as easily be lost as it can be found.
Andy Andrews
Remember, young man, experience is not the best teacher. Other people's experience is the best teacher. By reading about the lives of great people, you can unlock the secrets to what made them great.
Andy Andrews
For centuries, dreams have been used to communicate instruction and direction to people of purpose - great men and women. God used dreams to prepare Joseph for his future as a leader of nations. He gave battle plans to Gideon in a dream. Joan of Arc, Jacob, George Washington, Marie Curie, and the apostle Paul were all guided by their dreams.
Andy Andrews
To be great at whatever it is that you do, it's going to take some discipline to separate yourself from the average.
Andy Andrews
Experience is not the best teacher. Other people's experience is the best teacher.
Andy Andrews
It's time to stop letting your history control your destiny.
Andy Andrews
Poor is the man whose future depends on the opinions and permission of others. Remember this, if you are afraid of criticism, you will die doing nothing!
Andy Andrews
I think a lot of what is involved in finding a noticer is to watch people and see what fruit people have on the tree. You examine that life and see if it has the kind of fruit you want to produce in your life.
Andy Andrews
Ask yourself this question everyday: What is it about me that other people would change if they could?
Andy Andrews
People who other people value get job offers, they get opportunities, and they get encouragement all because they are valued.
Andy Andrews
You have chosen the pathway to your present destination. The responsibility for your situation is yours.
Andy Andrews
Seek wisdom. Wisdom waits to be gathered. She cannot be bartered or sold. She is a fight for the diligent. And only the diligent will find her. The lazy man - the stupid man - never even looks. Though wisdom is available to many, she is found by few. Seek wisdom. Find her, and you will find success and contentment.
Andy Andrews
Worry is just imagination used in an unproductive way.
Andy Andrews
I believe persistence is a major key to success in any great endeavor. I want to remind folks to PERSIST in whatever they are tackling at the moment!
Andy Andrews
When I was 19 years old, both of my parents died in the same year my mom of cancer and my dad in a car accident. Through the next two or three years and a series of bad decisions - all my own, I might add - I ended up literally homeless, before that was even a word. I even slept occasionally under a pier on the Gulf Coast.

But did you know that during the past quarter century, no presidential election has been won by more than ten million ballots cast? Yet every federal election during the same time period had at least one hundred million people of voting age who did not bother to vote!
