More quotes by Guy Finley
Real change isn't found in some new way to think about yourself, but in freedom from the need to think about yourself at all.
Guy Finley
Nothing glows brighter than the heart awakened to the unseen light of love that lives within it.
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
Everything passes. There is great beauty in this, both in the passing of pain and in the passing of pleasure. When things present themselves to you as permanent, don't believe it.
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
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
A whole new kind of spiritual happiness dawns in us as we realize that dark clouds do not ruin sunny skies... they merely pass through them to help us remember our love of the light.
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
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
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
It's time to break our ties with anything in us that would rather complain about its situation than go to work to change it.
Guy Finley
Rushing around, hoping to find peace of mind anywhere other than within yourself, is like looking for your heart in someone else's body!
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
Better that the whole world should turn against you... than you should consent to turn against what is true within you.
Guy Finley
Knowledge without Spirit is like finding yourself on a cold night with all the wood in the world and no flame to ignite it.
Guy Finley
Each time that you don't know you are choosing, then of those choices you are not the chooser.
Guy Finley
All created forms are fractal, as is their purpose, use, and allotted time for existence.
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
No condition outside ourselves can create a rut or trap us in it. It's impossible.
Guy Finley
The fear of seeing ourselves as we are ensures we will never see the end of our fears.
Guy Finley
