Loosid Sober Tip of the Day October 26

My ego is not my amigo.

Throughout our sober journey, we come to learn the destructive nature of our ego.

In 12-Step groups we quite often hear about a program of ego deflation.

Though it can seem weird at first to hear the deflation of ego as a symbol of strength, we have found this to be one of the most important things we learn in our sober journey.

The less ego we have, the more room for humility, and the more humility we have, the greater we aspire to listen, to learn and to grow.

Remember, it’s easy to operate from ego. Humility takes daily practice… but it’s worth it!!!

I love this as my ego has definitely taken the drivers seat in my drinking! When I say adios to that part if me I grow and learn about everyone else and in doing that I learn how I can serve them in humility and love!
Thanks Loosid!
