Vernon Howard quotes about
path deceived
A false path must be tensely and angrily defended by those it has deceived.
freedom numbers walks
Our freedom can be measured by the number of things we can walk away from.
healing failing easier
Healing fails to occur because it is much easier to injure another than to heal oneself.
secret teachable whole
Be teachable. That is the whole secret.
letting-go journey venture
You must dare to disassociate yourself from those who would delay your journey... Leave, depart, if not physically, then mentally. Go your own way, quietly, undramatically, and venture toward Trueness at last.
worried practicals
Worried thought prevents practical thought which could prevent worried thought.
spiritual real simple
Don't try to be spiritual. That is only a word in the dictionary. Make it your goal to become a normally functioning individual. Let these principles shape you according to your real nature of a simple, decent, honest, unafraid human being.
night guidance guidance-and-direction
Inner guidance is heard like soft music in the night by those who have learned to listen.
world woe causes
The need to impress others causes half the world's woes.
successful successful-day truth-is
Every day that you attempt to see things as they are in truth Is a supremely successful day.
motivational book reading
Many of us knock on the door but remain outside, because knocking and entering are entirely different actions. Knocking is necessary, consisting of reading books, attending meetings, asking questions. But entrance requires much bolder action. It requires one to enter into himself, to uncover hidden motives, to see contradictions, and to realize his actual power for self-change.
frustration battle causes
You know what is right. Deep down, you know. The battle between your true wisdom and the counterfeit wisdom of society is what causes frustration. Refuse to compromise with what you know is right-with what is right for you.
understanding acquisition
Happiness is not the acquisition of anything; it's the understanding of something.
emotional feelings assumption
We must become acquainted with our emotional household: we must see our feelings as they actually are, not as we assume they are. This breaks their hypnotic and damaging hold on us.
