Procrastinators Anonymous Promises of Recovery - Morning Phone Bridge

4.  Well-planned, and completed, actions will be our new way of life. Organizing will become second nature.  The desire to daydream, task-avoidance, and the dread of actions will disappear, as we find pleasure and spiritual fulfillment in completing the task before us.

clement ci - day 172 attempting abstinence, 92 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. AA Big Book says to rely on God. Quoted in my bookmarks : scroll down to "AA Big Book on fears : relying on God not self-reliance:"
