I asked a friend the other day where was he going? He said he’s going to the gym to work out! I said no your going to the gym to put the work “in” so you can take the work out! Recovery is the same way when you go to your meetings or groups or counseling. You put the work in and and take the work out into your daily living. The evidence is your sobriety and dealing with what life brings your way. You put the work in and now your ready!
I dig it!! 
Something about this just… works.
