I read a comment a few pages back about doing too much self-improvement too soon in sobriety. I think that is one of the things that has sabotaged me in the past. Being a perfectionist, I thought that not only am I going to stop drinking, but I will also hit the gym 5 days a week, begin a low carb meal plan, blah, blah, blah. Of course, I didn’t cut myself any slack and set myself up for too much too soon.

Today, the only thing I have to do perfect today is.... not drink. If I fail that, then no other positive goals are even possible.
I love this Boracraze!! Yes!! The only thing we all have to do perfect today is not drink!! Thank you for this encouragement this morning!! I shall carry this today! 💕
