Oprah Winfrey Quotes on Growth

11 quotes

  1. What I learned at a very early age was that I was responsible for my life. And as I became more spiritually conscious, I learned that we all are responsible for ourselves, that you create your own reality by the way you think and therefore act. You cannot blame apartheid, your parents, your circumstances, because you are not your circumstances. You are your possibilities. If you know that, you can do anything.

  2. What other people label or might try to call failure, I have learned is just God's way of pointing you in a new direction.

  3. 'Become the change you want to see'- those are words I live by.

  4. I am a woman in process. I'm just trying like everybody else. I try to take every conflict, every experience, and learn from it. Life is never dull.

  5. I don't believe in failure. It is not failure if you enjoyed the process.

  6. I don't think of myself as a poor deprived ghetto girl who made good. I think of myself as somebody who from an early age knew I was responsible for myself, and I had to make good.

  7. I know for sure that what we dwell on is who we become.

  8. It isn't until you come to a spiritual understanding of who you are- not necessarily a religious feeling, but deep down, the spirit within- that you can begin to take control.

  9. My philosophy is that not only are you responsible for your life, but doing the best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment.

  10. Turn your wounds into wisdom.

  11. We can't become what we need to be by remaining what we are.
