Loosid Sober Tip of the Day October 3

Sober Tips

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 have learned that I really don’t know best. I take suggestions and learn from my mistakes rather then making excuses and justifying them.

In the past several days actually through discussion at meetings it has resonated with me that that my accomplishments in the past are not as important as my humility in the present.

Hi Kelly... Willingness gratitude achieved and humility are the key to Serenity and the ability to give and the ability to give control up to God's will.

Our Ego is the last thing to go on our journey of recovery and I pray everyday that my higher power removes it from me and I stay humble. The solution to removing our Ego’s is a gratitude list because it makes you appreciate the blessings that we receive everyday and that keeps us humble.
