A desperation to escape a problem is the wrong way. A passion to understand it is the right way
Vernon Howard
Image
Is the beam from a lighthouse affected by howling wind and rain? It remains perfectly steadfast and unaffected by the storm. Your true self is like that. Nothing can ever harm you once you are consciously aware that it is so.
Vernon Howard
Image
Instead of fighting your problems, picture your way out of them.

The miracle of self-healing occurs when the inner patient yields to the inner physician.
Vernon Howard
Image
All we have to do is to receive what we are given...We are given the naturalness to love someone, to be calm in crisis, to ignore self-defeating suggestions, to be pleasant, forgiving, tender, helpful, unworried, brave, energetic.
Vernon Howard
Image
A cheery relaxation is man's natural state, just as nature itself is relaxed. A waterfall is concerned only with being itself, not with doing something it considers waterfall-like.

Don't try to be unafraid. That is impossible. Rather, go ahead while being afraid. That is the entire secret for abolishing fear. The Supermind teaches us to have no self-concern at all. Whatever happens to you, act as though it happened to someone else.
Vernon Howard
Image
Run forward when possible, walk ahead when you can, stagger onward when you must, but never cease your forward movement.
Vernon Howard
Image
Self-knowledge is the great power by which we comprehend and control our lives
Vernon Howard
Image
Healing fails to occur because it is much easier to injure another than to heal oneself.
Vernon Howard
Image
The only way to do something truly important every day is to seek to understand yourself every day.
Vernon Howard
Image
Ignorant people remain ignorant because they have a secret agreement to call one another intelligent.
Vernon Howard
Image
You have succeeded in life when all you really want is only what you really need.
Vernon Howard
Image
An obvious fact about negative feelings is often overlooked. They are caused by us, not by exterior happenings. An outside event presents the challenge, but we react to it. So we must attend to the way we take things, not to the things themselves.
Vernon Howard
Image
Men have the illusion of having a duty to make the world spin properly, which is precisely what makes it wobble.
Vernon Howard
Image
Quit thinking that you must halt before the barrier of inner negativity. You need not. You can crash through... whatever we see a negative state, that is where we can destroy it.
