I can’t live off of yesterday – that’s in the past.

Meaning of the quote

You can't depend on or live based on what happened in the past. The past is already over and done with, so you need to focus on the present and the future instead of dwelling on the past. You have to keep moving forward and not get stuck thinking about or relying on things that have already happened.
