If someone is going to control me, it might as well be me!!!

If someone is going to control me, it might as well be me!!!
-- Sarah B.

Ours is, and must be, a selfish Spiritual Program. Our Spiritual Recovery must be the most important thing in the world to us. Sometimes friends and loved ones are confused and hurt because we spend so much time and energy working at our Spiritual Journey . It's hard to explain why, yes, we must work it daily.

But however difficult, however hurtful or confusing to others our behavior might seem, we must take care of our own needs first. We're no use to our friends and family if we've relapsed to the way we were in the past.
 and are no use to ourselves, either. Our choices must seem like selfish ones. Our Spiritual Journey must come first, before the demands of others or even our own comfort. We need to keep our new determination, and work toward a new way of life.

Before, we told ourselves we'd quit tomorrow, that something would happen to make us change. Now, at last, we have the tools to arrest our addictions to ,addictive behavior is not related to either physical tolerance or exposure to cues. People compulsively use work drugs, gamble, or shop nearly always in reaction to being emotionally stressed, whether or not they have a physical addiction. Since these psychologically based addictions are not based on drug or brain effects, they can account for why people frequently switch addictive actions from one drug to a completely different kind of drug, or even to a non-drug behavior. The focus of the addiction isn't what matters; it's the need to take action under certain kinds of stress

Treating this kind of addiction requires an understanding of how it works psychologically.

All or Nothing or everything is Black or White, equals No Balance...

 But the tools will only work if we use them to find Balance on  our Spiritual Journey .

Today help me be in control of my own destiny.
