Who are you becoming today?

At this moment, I am the right person in the right place at the right time.

Sometimes we wake up on the wrong side of the bed. For whatever reason, we just don’t want to face the day. The world seems too big, too difficult, and the solution feels like crawling back into bed or re-engaging with our addiction. At that point, we have to ask ourselves, “What kind of day do I want to have?” If we want to be miserable, we’ll get off to a great start. If we want to have a decent day, we need to take a break from our feelings. That rest always Some kind of action is required on our part. We need to take the proverbial “next right step.” Sometimes, that means getting out of bed and being grateful for our sobriety. Sometimes that means compiling a gratitude list to remind yourself that life is good. Other times, it’s as simple as dragging yourself to the bathroom to brush your teeth, shower, and get dressed. When we do the next right thing, and then the next right thing over and over again, we start getting things done, and our day, no matter how bad it is, gets better.
