I make progress when I focus on how not why. When I look for things in life that I disagree with, I can easily find them. There are multitudes. When I look for things in life that I agree with, I can find them. Agree or disagree is about value judgements more than about solutions. How is about solutions. Why is more about value judgements. If I had to agree with an action before taking it, I would still be drunk!
On point, we’ll said, Nez!
this was me too, I over analyzed Everything in early recovery/ first year I think.. When I work on changing this behavior I grow a little..
