More quotes by Guy Finley
Most people would rather complain about some painful life pattern than dare to meet the level of their own consciousness responsible for its repeated appearance... and therein do the work needed to change it once and for all.
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
Being anxious, or in a painful rush of any kind, kills the possibility of meeting anyone with compassion
Guy Finley
Those who dare to try what others only dream of - never fail to discover that real effort is always rewarded.
Guy Finley
Once something has outlived its usefulness in one area of life, its purpose for being in existence is no longer the same. The leaf that captures a stream of sunlight, and then transfers its energy to the tree, serves one purpose in the spring and summer, and another completely different one through the fall and winter.
Guy Finley
The past is as powerless to darken the present moment as is a shadow to reach up and drag down the form that casts it.
Guy Finley
Listening to your own mind gives you good reasons why you should be fearful over unexpected events is just like being friends with someone who thinks it's funny to find new ways to hurt you!
Guy Finley
Believing that anxious thoughts and feelings can restore order to your life is like using a chain-saw to fold your laundry.
Guy Finley
It's a paradox of the true spiritual path, but the more conscious we become of what limits us, the more limitless becomes our life.
Guy Finley
It's important for us to become aware of the fact that we are needful, for with that awareness also comes the sensing that we couldn't be needful if there weren't something to fulfill the need.
Guy Finley
Ours is the task of discovering that our true nature has nothing to fear.
Guy Finley
Any form of measuring yourself by the unkind action of another towards you is like looking into a badly fractured mirror... and then blaming yourself for the shattered image you see therein.
Guy Finley
You don't need strength to let go of something. What you really need is understanding.
Guy Finley
Act on what you love, not from what you fear, and watch how fear fades as love grows.
Guy Finley
Real prayer, the soul-transformi ng kind, is self-discontinu ity. It is a conscious act of self-suspension arising from the wish for something new to occur.
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
The smallest effort to remember the Divine, or even one of its timeless truths, connects you to a calmness whose power is in that secret strength found in all things deep.
Guy Finley
On the other side of resistance is the flow of real life.
Guy Finley
Never run from what you don't understand, as it will be waiting for you every time you come to a stop.
Guy Finley
If we only knew how many times our seemingly clever comment cut straight into the heart of the person with whom we have just spoken, it is we who would bleed.
Guy Finley
