More quotes by 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
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
Real freedom isn't subject to how others estimate our value it is in realizing that none are free who find their sense of worth wondering how others measure their lives.
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
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
The only thing worried thoughts have the power to change is what the next thing will be for you to worry over!
Guy Finley
The only world in which defeat exists as a reality is the one darkened by the false idea that what may have happened to us a moment ago is the same as what's possible for us to achieve now.
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
One way to measure your own fears is to count the number of personal questions you've allowed others to answer for you.
Guy Finley
No condition outside ourselves can create a rut or trap us in it. It's impossible.
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
The limit of your present understanding is not the limit of your possibilities.
Guy Finley
See that any time you feel pained or defeated, it is only because you insist on clinging to what doesn't work. Dare to let go and you won't lose a thing except for a punishing idea.
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
Those who dare to try what others only dream of - never fail to discover that real effort is always rewarded.
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
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
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
Much like the hands of a clock go nowhere fast, anxious thoughts run us round-and-round without taking us anywhere!
