Life is good. Very good....
Depending on your perspective...
Just for today, stand on top of a table top and view the world from a different angle. Funny how it looks different, isn't it? The same is true of your thinking. You have the power to change your own destiny.

If
If you resist something, DO IT
If you MUST DO something NOW, don't.
Or at the very least, wait.
Just for Today, wait until you know that you can do it OR not, and be okay with letting the chips fall where they may.

Beware of the "B" Word
Boredom is the enemy of the alcoholic/addict.
So is the illusion of boredom.
Lack of drama is not equal to boredom.
Serenity is not boring.
This will take a loooong time to learn, however, so until you learn it, don't sit still.
Just for today: Be active until the moment you realize that boredeom is a choice, not a reality.

You can do it
Today's Inspiration for ya: Okay, so I went to bikram today and there was a woman there who was morbidly obese. She had just started going to bikram and has been five times in four days and talked about making a committment to change her life. If others can find their weak links and take steps to change, WE CAN TOO.

So What?
SO WHAT
if you don't get your way.
If it doesn't work out, it's not a good fit.
Jobs, relationships, rewards and regrets
These come and go.
What it true is your core
Your authenticity
Your pliability
The extent to which you can digest the good and expell the bad, learning the whole way through.
Besides, recovery is all about trusting that if not this, something much better is just around the corner.
Just for Today, if something doesn't work out as you planned..the job, the girl, the _______________, then practice the faith that abundance beyond your wildest dreams is just beyond the next door that opens.

How Important Is It?
Winning isn't everything...
especially when it means losing...
something or someone else.
Despite what we've been taught,
letting others know we know what is right is not helpful; especially since we didn't know what was right for us to begin with.
Getting sober means forgetting about being the boss and digesting a better way of living.
A way that doesn't always mean we are right, but that, no matter what, we can FEEL alright.
Just for today, let someone else prove you wrong. You will be surprised at how much more you will like yourself afterwards...
