Guy Finley's You Can Be Unstoppable

Key Lesson: “Uninvited opinions are unpleasant acts visited on the unwary by those whose idea of good conversation is to hear themselves speak on any topic of opportunity that others, not as wise as they, ought to know!”

Key Lesson: “Once we realize that whatever we will bring into our awareness has always been an aspect of our own consciousness, only not yet awakened to, we also understand this liberating truth: nothing exists outside of us. All destinations are already within us, including the Love we are searching for and the unconditional freedom that It alone has the power to grant.”

Key Lesson: “The true test of our actual level of understanding is how we respond to those moments in life when we don't understand why life unfolds as it does.”

Key Lesson: “Real Life is change itself, a ceaseless flow of creative forces expressed in ever-new forms. So, our inability to make a fresh start isn't because Life refuses us what we need to succeed. The problem is this: before we can hope to make a real new beginning in life, we must deliberately release our old claims upon it; for it is only in letting go of whatever binds us to our past that we are free to realize the promise of who we may yet be.”

Key Lesson: We cannot hope to enter into that Life larger than our own as long as we continue to look at our own life through a set of limited ideas that preclude that possibility.

Key Lesson: All unhappy thoughts are creations of a mind that visits what it does for the sole purpose of stirring up something with which to stimulate itself. To see this truth is to see that you are not this mind, nor its misery -- which further means you need never again consent to the captivity inherent in trying to sort out its sufferings.

Key Lesson: No sense of bitter disappointment about others having "failed" us can darken our day without our first having fashioned high expectations for them; which means that when we find ourselves suffering for the actions of another, we need only realize the following truth. Our negative reaction is not the bitter fruit of his or her perceived fault: the secret source of what troubles us is what we would have that person be.

Key Lesson: A great spiritual paradox: the knowledge we gain of any weakness that lives within us strengthens self-understanding. To know the truth of this is to welcome those shocks in life by whose light we become more and more wise.
