Finding Your Next Step

[Lady1021]

Thanks for sharing! I'm finding that not all literature helpful to recovery is necessarily AA approved.

The choices you've made and the dreams you've held onto can give you an idea of what you don’t want to do anymore and what you might like to do next.

As much as I dragged my feet deciding to get a smartphone, I'm so glad I did because I now have instant access to the online journal I've kept for the last decade, which has been a particularly helpful tool to combat my 'built-in forgetter'. I also have quick access to my written first step in case I start to forget that I am a real alcoholic.

I often had to pray for the willingness to be willing to work the Step in today. Other times, I had to pray for the willingness to be willing to move on to the next one.

Good reminder. I suspect this is something I need to work on when the thought comes to me to talk to god.
