December 18 in The Little Blue Book ONE DAY at a TIME in AL-ANON
December 18 in The Little Blue Book ONE DAY at a TIME in AL-ANON:
Thoughts to take to an Al-Anon meeting:
I will make sure that what I say will be helpful to someone, and not merely use the meeting as an audience for my troubles.
I will listen to everything that is said so I will ha ve some constructive ideas to take home with me and use.
I will not yield to my compulsion to go on talking after I have made my point – and what I say will have a direct relevance to the subject of the meeting.
If someone asks for advice, I will give it only in terms of Al-Anon principles, and not suggest action to be taken.
TODAY’S REMINDER
The Al-Anon meeting is essentially group therapy from which each person should derive maximum benefit. If I have a personal problem to discuss, I will talk about it to my sponsor before or after the meeting, or by telephone between meetings.
“I will not waste a single minute of that one hour of the week when we can be together to share experience, strength and hope.”
