The Power of One!
Is your life getting better? Is your conversation changing? Are people noticing a difference in you? These are all questions to ask yourself as you are making your way along the recovery path. Often when we quit an addiction, there are immediate changes that are quite noticeable, but after several weeks/months or years, we get into a routine and change becomes less overt. For this week, think about where you are and where you want to be and see if there are things you can continue to change that will help you get there. No matter where you start, if you make one small change, it will have an effect. Pick out a new vocabulary word and use it all week long, or walk for 5 (or more) minutes everyday and think about all the people you love as you walk. Try a new recipe or eat a new food. Compliment everyone you see. Just make one change and see how it affects your week!
