Work and AA/Sobriety

For the longest time now, I've been equating my work with my self-worth. It wasn't until I got sober that I had a lightbulb turned on and realized I am not teh equivalent of my work. I work to pay the bills. It's not who I am.

So lately, a lot of my work stuff I used to place huge importance on, meetings and such, seem so trivial. I hardly attend them any longer, and if I'm somehow roped into one, I make up some kind of excuse to attend an AA meeting!

I wonder who else has had this awakening with their work and sobriety.
