Hi Larry … Happy New Year. You have done an amazing job since you started back in August … proving that taking recovery one day at a time really works. I think your strategy of making a new pledge every day is an excellent one too. As time passes, it’s too easy to forget the devastation that gambling causes for cgs. So, I too am going to make a daily pledge to enjoy each day to the fullest … gamble-free!!
I find that as I adopt a more mindful, one day at a time (actually, one moment at a time) approach, I’ve lost the urge to count. It simply has lost its importance. That’s a big thing for me. There are still occasions where I panic and think what if I can’t keep this up … but I’m trying to snap out of that thinking and unnecessary panic and just take care of now.
Thank you Larry, for all your support in 2009. I am honoured to share this journey with you.
Hugs.
RGThis moment is all we really have. Be happy in it.
