Daily Check-ins

This forum is for check-ins or "book-ending" - a very effective strategy where you post a message committing to doing something for a specified length of time, then at the end of that length of time, come back and post a message reporting on what you did.

Good morning everybody, welcome to recover
Procrastinators Anonymous 12 Steps

1. step. We admitted we were powerless over compulsive procrastination, that our lives had become unmanageable.

Today I think of our first step. Yes I admit I am powerless over delaying doing the things I should do. I have had this since my childhood, I am now 58 years of age. I did not do my homework at school. I just did not do them. I was not stupid. I finished my shool. I push everything. And to the second part of the first step. My life is very unmanageable. Now I have a hope of recovering with my Higher Power and the doing lists.
