Hello everyone,

My name is Guy Finley and you and I are about to embark on a fantastic journey that we can almost guarantee will have a happy ending because the journey we're going to take starts with understanding what it takes as individuals to not just change our tomorrows but to change every day where we are with what we are.

We're talking about 31 keys to change your destiny so that in the new year coming you can make every day part of a new life and a new way in which you experience yourself and everyone else around you.

The best guarantee that any of us will ever have for a brighter freer tomorrow is found inside of the interior work that we do to change our understanding about ourselves and the world we're in.

We all do the best we can in every given moment,

There's no question about it,

But we need new knowledge if we want to change our destiny because our destiny is a direct reflection of what we are moment to moment.

So to change what we are is in fact to begin having the power to change what we do and what comes to us as a result of that activity.

So in this series of 31 sessions the first one is going to be about our being.

It's a law,

It's not man's,

It's not woman's,

The laws of life that before we can have a different kind of life,

Before we can be happier,

Wiser,

More at peace in quiet command of ourselves,

The first thing we have to do is actually be different.

Now being different isn't the same as making a series of New Year's resolutions,

We've all done that,

Been there and find ourselves back at the beginning again.

We're not talking about resolutions,

We're talking about realizations.

And when it comes to realization,

Being is everything.

What is being?

Everything on earth and in the heavens has being because animated or not,

All forms are an expression of one great intelligent creative energy.

Even a common rose has a being of a sort.

Similarly,

All manner of beings from rocks to roses to you and I,

All are unique expressions of this one great energy,

All possess a nature given to them by what has created them.

The nature of a rock,

For instance,

Is determined by the natural forces acting on it.

Both the rock's nature and its destiny are in fact predetermined.

Its being,

Meaning the rock,

Is without choice.

One day it will be dust.

And neither does the rose,

Dressed so delicately in its fragrant petals.

It doesn't have a choice as to its nature.

A rose can't choose not to have thorns or attract bees.

Its nature is a fixed expression of its being.

But human nature,

Your nature,

My nature,

Is not fixed.

It can be transformed.

That's what makes us special above all of God's countless expressions.

And this fact empowers us in a very special way.

It means that as a feature of our being,

Each of us is created with the power to choose our destiny.

Let's see how this is possible.

Your being is in a constant process of unfolding.

That it will unfold is not your choice,

Not mine.

Being after all is a gift that we can't refuse.

It came with birth.

But how the rest of our life unfolds is something we can influence.

It's called making choices.

Being empowered to have a real voice in your life choices is what these 31 sessions is going to be all about.

However,

Before we can learn how to change our destiny,

We have to realize that place within ourselves where our future is literally being created.

We must consciously enter that place of power,

Where being and our present nature meet.

That place where all of our life choices are made for us.

It's called the present moment.

The now.

And this now is the seed of all that comes later.

Let me explain a little bit further about this mystery.

It's only what you and I do right this moment,

And I mean right now,

That's the seed of personal change.

And in the endless beauty and mystery of what is now,

This same seed of change is also the seed of our new and higher nature.

Grasp the meaning of what I'm going to say next fully as best you can,

And you'll have your first glimpse at just one of the special ways in which what we'll call the power of the present moment can help you change your destiny.

If we choose to change right now,

Then we won't have to worry about how to be different next time.

In fact,

Choose to change now,

And that moment will never come for you to worry about how to be better next time.

Try and see it with me.

Our conscious choice for a real change in the present moment automatically cancels the need for a better you or a better me in a time to come.

Again,

Why?

Because all will be better for us right now,

Which is really the only time it matters.

Make it your moment-to-moment practice to stay awake,

And watch for all the opportunities that your own now presents.

Keep your efforts personal,

Practical,

And to the point,

And that's what our 31 ways to change our destiny is going to help us do.

Because if our inner work doesn't transform the whole of our life into a more relaxed,

Amazing and uplifting experience,

Then we're not in the present moment.

We're dreaming,

And if we're dreaming,

We're not changing.

To help you begin this important process of using the power of the present moment for personal transformation,

The series of sessions we're going to have are designed specifically to reveal the literally countless opportunities that each and every day presents to us to be free in the here and now.

It's up to us.

But I've created this list of 31 ways,

Including our introductory comment on how important it is for us to change our being,

So that we can learn how to use these moments that lead to real inner change,

Which in the end is the same as being in command of your own destiny,

And of guaranteeing that you will have not just a better,

Brighter life today,

But that for the rest of your life,

Everything will line up as you wish for your highest success.

For best results,

Meaning for the greatest success that you can have with these 31 keys,

Especially if one of them in particular grabs your attention,

Go back to that one particular lesson.

Contemplate it.

It wants you to think about it because it will begin to touch parts of you that will dramatically change the way in which you understand and therefore experience the present moment.

And let me close with this encouragement.

Your efforts to work with these sessions,

Each and every one of them,

Which I can't encourage you strongly enough to go back over them,

Is going to help you understand and live from another order of your own being.

And as you awaken to that new and higher part of yourself,

You will naturally change your destiny.

And as you change your destiny,

You will experience higher,

Happier,

And more fulfilling events.

There is no such thing as changing your destination without changing the whole of your life and every relationship in it.

So let's get started.

Understand me as soon as you can with the second of these 31 ways to change your destiny.

It's always the right time to make a change in being and change your life.
