More quotes by Guy Finley

Guy Finley
Any conclusion you reach about yourself has to be an unseen limitation because there's always more to see.
Guy Finley
Until you can love what the truth would teach you about yourself... then your love is incomplete.

Weak thoughts and feelings often feel strong but remember, real strength is never anxious, cruel, or punishing.
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
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
Staying present, living in Presence is the best gift anyone can give to those they love.
Guy Finley
The fear of seeing ourselves as we are ensures we will never see the end of our fears.
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
The only one interested in hearing your sad story is . . . you and even you wish you didn't have to relive it again!
Guy Finley
You have a destination far beyond where you find yourself standing today.
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.
