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.
