God help me to seek and to know and to do Your will for me today! amen!
Ready or not, here I go!
Happy w my progress, not perfection for the day...it rained so no running, but got a good workout cleaning! Here's my company...
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:"
I have come to believe that it is more important to maintain sobriety of relying on God than to get things done.
"15 Points" point 5 says:
5. Develop and rehearse a daily plan of thinking and acting by which you will live that day relying on God, regardless of what may upset you or how hard the old urge to rely on self may hit you.
My Plan is this:
read "15 Points"
Meditate for 5 min on the attributes of God

When we retire at night, we constructively review our day (BB).
Were we resentful, selfish, dishonest or afraid?
Do we owe an apology?
Have we kept something to ourselves which should be discussed with another person at once?
Were we kind and loving toward all?
What could we have done better?
Were we thinking of ourselves most of the time?
Or, were we thinking of what we could do for others, of what we could pack into the stream of life?
