Loosid Sober Tip of the Day October 16

Sober Tips
#1

Learning to love ourselves is one of the hardest challenges we face when entering a spiritual program of recovery.

So many of us look at the harm we have done and think that it is impossible we will ever get to a point to right our wrongs.

Many more amongst us think we do not deserve to get better.

Just for today, give yourself the gift of recognizing your accomplishments.

No matter who you are, you took two very big steps today.

You opened Loosid to get help… and you read a tip to get advice and guidance.

Sadly, there are millions of people on this very day who are stuck in denial and refuse to accept the possibility that they need help, and for this reason they didn’t take any steps.

Take one more step today… walk over to your mirror and look at yourself and say, “I’m proud of you.”

Why? Because you should be.

How did this tip resonate with you? Let us know your thoughts below. There are many people in the Loosid community who need to hear what you have to say.

With Love, Loosid :pray::heart:

So easy to focus on screw-ups. Truth is 90% of my life has been solid. So thanks for reminding me to put things in perspective.

Just what I needed to hear :blush:

Ok. I, like Mike, appreciate that about 90% of my life has also been solid. My screw ups have been an unfortunate part of my life that took over that I could not take control of for many reasons at the time. Looking back what happened was just a part of life I guess. I look at it as a another chapter that I must deal with to move my life forward as much as I do not understand it at all at this point. This is very difficult but I have to get through this as I believe in my soul that I am better than this and I truly deserve to get better and I know I am capable to defeat this evil that has taken over the wonderful person that I worked so hard for so long to be.
