Wishing those of you in the springtime north the energy and optimism of new buds, and those of you in the autumnal south, the gathering of resources and consolidation of things achieved.

clement ci - day 131 attempting abstinence, 51 from self

Abstinence from unplanned time.

  • The one thing, the only thing, i can do impulsively is write something on my todo list.
  • The one thing, the only thing, i can do off plan is recovery, something to maintain my sobriety, when tempted. I have come to believe that it is more important to maintain sobriety than to get things done.

Abstinence from relying on self.

9:56am : it's been 15h 28min since i last went off plan.
It's been 58min since i last relied on self.

THINGS I DID WELL TODAY

I had a terrible appt and i felt emotionally drained, bankrupt. I was in serious danger of sinking into a zero-motivation vortex. Could have lasted hours, even days. But God has transformed my mind, and i recognized it for what it was, and i read "15 points for the self-aholic to consider when confronted with the urge to rely on self, not God" and it lifted me out of my funk, and make me trust God wholeheartedly again, and gave me a positive outlook. This was a huge recovery win for me today.

THINGS I COULD HAVE DONE BETTER

Not needed to have to read "15 points", but have more automatically turned to God when i was i need. God help me do this next time, or in the future.

THINGS I AM GRATEFUL FOR

My recovery win (see above)
