1. A TURNING POINT, p.301
A great turning point in our lives came when we sought for humility as something we really wanted, rather than as something we must have.-12 & 12, p.75
2. Never talk down to an alcoholic from any moral or spiritual hilltop; simply lay out the kit of spiritual tools for his inspection. Show him how they worked with you. Offer him friendship and fellowship ~As Bill Sees It p.192
3. “The foolish and the dead never change their opinion.”–James Russell Lowell
Part of my understanding of spirituality is that I will change. I will change my mind, my attitude and my opinion. My understanding of sobriety is that I will grow, grow in an understanding of myself, grow in an understanding of God’s will for me, and grow in an understanding of other people. Today I am not afraid to change my thinking about life.
4. Always think of what you have to do as easy and it will become so. —Emile Corie
The thoughts we carry in our minds determine whether our tasks are fun or not. What good fortune it is that we can control those thoughts. If we approach an assignment for school or a job believing that we’re able to do it, that it’s not too hard for us, we’ll finish with ease. Our thoughts determine our successes. In this way, our lives are in our own hands.
