Very nice post!
I don't have to do the steps all at once, I don't have to be perfect. I get to do them little by little...one step at a time and one day at a time. It seems so obvious, right? That's why they call them "step's" instead of "huge impossible leaps."
But yeah, the old feelings creep in: I'm not good enough, I'm doing it wrong...(I could go on).
Just like I'm not in control of people, places and things...I'm not in control of my feelings either. But with the help of my program, I can have feelings, I can identify them, I can recognize that they are (just) feelings and I can let them go.
