Loosid Sober Tip of the Day January 11

Finding the good in YOU.

Yesterday, we looked at finding the good in others. Hopefully, that has given you some very strong relief and freed up quite a bit of wasted energy on anger and resentment.

As we have heard countless times, resentment is the #1 offender.

Quite often, the person we most resent most in life is ourselves.

Just for today, focus on the good in you.

Most of us have harmed many people in our active addiction and have a hard time forgiving ourselves for what we have done.

Just for today, focus on the actions you have taken now that you have entered a new journey.

What have you done to be of service to others? What have you done that started you on this spiritual path?

If you are still new or are in active addiction, just by reading this daily tip shows great willingness to change. That is GOOD. Very GOOD.

If nothing comes to mind, think of what good you can do today to help others. Think of what good you can do to learn more about the path to recovery.

If you are confused or don’t know where to start, post below any questions you may have.

If you have been around a bit, please share with the community the GOOD about you and what you have been able to do since entering recovery.

There are many people in the Loosid community who need to hear what you have to say.

With Love, Loosid :pray::heart:

I feel this speaks to our and my unnoticed resilency. We as humans have so much resiliency however it is hard to at times become attune to it. Through the clarity of not drinking, especially these past 11 days, i feel as though that resilency has emerged

Almost had three years relapsed and now I’m on day 5. I needed this message thank you god for this app!!

I need all points of view...

I share what’s going on in 12 step meetings. I reach out to people who are in the rooms and my sponsor. I drug test for accountability

Helping the addict who is still suffering is our primary purpose. So show up, always say yes, and raise your hand . You never know what might resonate with the next person.

I have a sponsor, am working the 12 steps and reaching out to others

Has anyone been able to stop drinking without going to AA?

I have been sober for quite some time now and being that I am sober I am a better person,the person God created me to be. I'm not perfect, however I have respect for others and I treat people how I want to be treated, I am considerate of others and if I slip up I can and do apologize and I mean it because I won't allow it to happen again. Me doing the next right thing daily and consistently is how I contribute to others.
