Guy Finley
The more time we spend considering the shortcomings of others, the smaller a person we become.
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
If we're interested in spiritual things, we gradually realize that what we really need is to understand this nature that seems to be a bottomless basket, because there is no peace in it.
Guy Finley

Guy Finley
You must learn to stop thinking in terms of beginnings and endings, successes and failures, and begin to treat everything in your life as a learning experience instead of a proving one.
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
Believing that anxious thoughts and feelings can restore order to your life is like using a chain-saw to fold your laundry.
Guy Finley
On the other side of resistance is the flow of real life.
Guy Finley
Once you know what it means to choose in favor of yourself, there is no power in the universe that can make you choose against yourself.
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
Know that everything is in perfect order whether you understand it or not.
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
Trying to “fix” the people in your life that cause you pain is like massaging your shoes because your feet ache.
