Bill Says: (A Blog About Recovery)
Some thoughts about recovery. * Take what you like and leave the rest.

MORE STEP TEN:
Step Ten says: "Continued to take
personal inventory and when we were
wrong promptly admitted it." It does
not suggest that we ignore what is
right in our life.
When we take an inventory, we will
want to look for many things. We can
search out feelings that need our
attention. We can look for old ways
of thinking, feeling, and behaving.
But a critical part of our inventory
can focus on what we're doing right
and all that is good around us.
Part of our problem is an obsessive
focus on what's wrong. In recovery
we're learning to focus on what is
right.
What did you do right today? Did
you behave differently today than
you would have a year ago? Did you
reach out to someone and allow
yourself to be vulnerable? You can
compliment yourself for that.
Did you have a bad day but dealt
effectively with it? Did you practice
gratitude and acceptance? Did you
take a risk, own your power, or set a
boundary?
Did you take time for prayer or
meditation? Did you trust the God of
your understanding?
Even on our worst days, we can find
one thing we did right. We can find
one thing to feel hopeful about. We
can focus realistically on visions of
what can be.
