Time to bump this again. Reading this post helped me stay the course when I was about 3 months in. Now that I am closing in on 2 years, I am still in awe - so many nuggets of wisdom, it’s incredible!

Needed to see this today. Thank you so much for posting.

I’m very early in recovery. To emphasize the ending sentiment of the article— I find that when I am doing for others, I feel at my very best and closer to the person I am meant to be. It’s when I feel my best in sobriety.

Slow and steady wins the race—taking my time and working at it each day.

Many thanks!

I needed this too, day 45. I am going to reread this about three times. I’m in a place of wanting to do too much, achieve so much and trying to just manage everyday things. I agree exercise help tremendously. I should get centered and focus more on achieving one thing at a time.

Mariposa, I agree with you: Getting sober is a massive task and sticking with doing just that is plenty for the first six months! No need to start training for a marathon, write the Great American Novel and repaint the Sistine Chapel. There’s always time for that in year 2, lol!
