More quotes by T. D. Jakes

When it comes to bringing an idea that God has given you to fruition, don't wait for it to happen again, you have to get out there and make it happen.
T. D. Jakes
Sometimes we esteem others more important than ourselves. We always become the martyr. It is wonderful to be self-sacrificing, but watch out for self-disdain! If we don’t apply some of the medicine that we use on others to strengthen ourselves, our patients will be healed and we will be dying.
T. D. Jakes
God's grace and mercy have brought you through. Quit acting as if you made it on your own.

T. D. Jakes
Not everyone will be happy when you begin to better yourself. Those who are for you will not just celebrate in your triumphs, but they will also pray with you through your tribulations.
T. D. Jakes
The enemy doesn't care how many days you live as long as you don't live in the days you have.

As the old African adage says, 'everybody skin to me ain't kin to me'. So you can't exclusively make that the criteria of your job selection and say that it's right when it's black and discrimination when it's white.
T. D. Jakes
Big ideas come from forward thinking people who challenge the norm, think outside the box, and invent the world they see inside rather than submitting to the limitations of current dilemmas
T. D. Jakes
When you begin to realize that your past does not necessarily dictate the outcome of your future, then you can release the hurt. It is impossible to inhale new air until you exhale the old.
T. D. Jakes
Once you have confidence in your instincts, you must never allow other people's refusal to believe, or their data to refute, what you instinctively know is true.
T. D. Jakes
Contentment comes when you find the people, places, and events in life you were created to impact.
T. D. Jakes
To those of us who often procrastinate on the decision we feel intimidated by lack of education or any area of weakness. I relieve you with this statement: It is not how much you know that arms you with the tools of great decision making, but rather how much you ask. Ask questions.
