More quotes by Guy Finley
Be still quietly remember the presence of and within yourself, and you will know, without thinking, that while all around you everything changes, within you lives something unchanging.
Guy Finley
Fearlessness comes with the birth of this new understanding: The only reason life changes as it does is to reveal the secret Goodness underlying those same changes.
Guy Finley
To know that every moment — regardless of how it comes wrapped — is a gift greater than you can give yourself, is to be well on your way to a life without fear.
Guy Finley
We conquer ourselves by learning patience, for she gives to us our longed for victory only in the surrender of self.
Guy Finley
Know that everything is in perfect order whether you understand it or not.
Guy Finley
Discouragement is a negative emotion with more than one trick up its dark sleeve. It tricks you into mentally or emotionally dwelling in the very place you want to leave. Drop all such sorrow permanently by daring to see through this deception of the unconscious mind. You have a destination far beyond where you find yourself standing today
Guy Finley
Until you can love what the truth would teach you about yourself... then your love is incomplete.
Guy Finley
I am willing to walk toward, and then through, whatever may be seen in the moment as being greater than myself.
Guy Finley
The fear of seeing ourselves as we are ensures we will never see the end of our fears.
Guy Finley
Every relationship that we have in our lives - our contact with each person, place, and event - serves a very special, if yet to be realized purpose: They are mirrors that can serve to show us things about ourselves that can be realized in no other way.
Guy Finley
The mistake we have made in our lives is that over and over again we've run into the needful moment and then failed to learn its higher lesson. We don't like needful moments and therefore we resist them.
Guy Finley
Ours is the task of discovering that our true nature has nothing to fear.
Guy Finley
The more time we spend considering the shortcomings of others, the smaller a person we become.
Guy Finley
What you don't want to know about yourself wants to be known, which is why it keeps 'showing up' at your door unannounced!
Guy Finley
Statistics vary, but in less than seven years there won't be a single cell left in any of our bodies that's the same as it is today. This means that any human being who 'wants' to change is like a mountain river wanting to reach the valley floor. It's a done deal that's what mountain rivers do, and 'changing' should be our first nature.
Guy Finley
It isn't something of which most of us are aware, but we human beings are 'marked' with a certain strange feature, and that is: We want to change.
Guy Finley
Instead of always asking yourself why so-and-so acts this or that way, learn to ask: What's inside of me that wants to hurt itself over how anyone else acts?
Guy Finley
As the lesser is always found within the greater, so this principle holds true with regards to time and the eternal.
Guy Finley
No one rises above who he or she has been without first having fallen down. The best time - in fact, the only time - to make a real change in your life is in the moment of seeing the need for it. He who hesitates always gets lost in the hundred reasons why tomorrow is a better day to get started.
Guy Finley
The next time you catch yourself starting to feel bad about anything, immediately stop everything you are doing for a moment and, as simply and as honestly as you can, ask yourself: Is this what I really want?
Guy Finley
