The New Me


You know at some point in this journey of our recovery we discover that there are
going to be some things we really need to change about ourselves.

We may be thinking about trying to change our behavior, but we haven't yet found the
will to do anything about it.

We may recognize some of the hurdles and difficulties of changing our behavior,
and we may be thinking about making some changes at some point in the future,
but are just not ready to act in the immediate future.

It takes Courage to change.

What really helps for me is to think about what the new me would be like, the me without
the behavior that I want to change. It gives me something to aspire to.

The New Me not drink and drugging

The New will be able to hold a job,

The New Me will gain back the respect of my children.

The New Me will gain back the love and respect of my hubby.

The New Me will wake up feeling good and rested.

The New Me will be eligible for a raise or promotion at work.

The New Me will enjoy birthdays and Holidays with no regrets.

The New Me will make new friends.

The New Me will be able to take vacations and actually enjoy the scenery, the attractions
and not just be sitting on the beach or in a lounge getting drunk all day.

The New Me will earn money and actually be able to save money.

The New Me will not have anything to feel guilty about.

The New Me will be healthier.

The New Me will be able to be of service to others.

The New Me will be at peace.

The New Me will be happy.

How do I attempt to become the New me?

By taking Baby steps, one day at a time beginning with things like learning to pray, reading
recovery literature, attending support meetings, setting short term goals, doing service.

Acknowledging when I am wrong. Accepting the things I cannot change and lowering
my expectations.

Being God centered and not self centered.

Ask yourself "Am I ready for the New Me?"

If we can see it we can be it!

What's holding us back?


There are some things that hold us back from finding recovery and I have struggled
with each and everyone since I have been in recovery.

Here are some I have faced in the past and occasionally still do.

Lack of Time
Lack of Discipline
Lack of Determination
Lack of Motivation
Lack of Energy
Lack of Courage

There are questions I had to ask myself.

Why does this barrier continue to challenge me?

What excuses am I mentally telling myself about why I can’t do this?

What do I need to change in order to accomplish my goal?

Who has overcome this challenge, and can I learn from them?

What are the consequences in my life if I don’t succeed?

What are the incredible rewards I’ll enjoy when I succeed?

What bite-sized baby-step can I take to move me forward in recovery?

Change just one thing this week.

Maybe it's making time for your recovery by spending less time doing things
that just waste time.

Maybe it's turning off the TV or putting down the phone.

Maybe it disciplining yourself to pray at a certain time of day.

Maybe it's motivating yourself by reading recovery literature.

Maybe it is committing to an extra meeting a week.

Maybe eating healthier this week.

Maybe a vow to not complain.

Maybe a vow not to lie.

Maybe a vow to take on a more positive attitude.

Maybe it is the courage to reach out for help when you are hurting.

Everything takes practice. Taking baby steps forward will lead us into new
healthy habits but we have to start somewhere!

If we do one thing for awhile until it becomes a habit, we can move onto the
next obstacle.

Where are we gonna start today?
