First Things First
One day at a time
Help is only a phone call away
Nothing changes if nothing changes
Progress, not perfection
Keep coming back
Feelings are not facts
HALT = don't get too Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired
If you don't want to slip, stay away from slippery places
Your worth should never depend on another persons opinion
Let go and let God
Take what you can use and leave the rest
It's a simple program for complicated people
Do the next right thing
SLIP = Sobriety Lost Its Priority
Live and Let Live
An addict cannot be grateful and hateful at the same time
Willingness is the key
Change is a process, not an event
Take what you need and leave the rest
Keep coming back, it works if you work it
GOD = Good Orderly Direction
H O P E = Happy Our Program Exists
It is possible to change without improving - it is impossible to improve without change
HOW it works = Honesty, Open mindedness, and Willingness
think......think.......think
Easy does it
Serenity is not freedom from the storm but peace amid the storm
To thine own self be true
Resentment is like drinking poison and expecting someone else to die
Seven days without a meeting makes one weak
Don't quit before the miracle happens
Keep it simple
You only get out of it what you put into it
If you do what you always did, you'll get what you always got
When all else fails, follow directions
Recovery doesn't happen overnight
You can only keep what you have by giving it away
This too shall pass
Turn it over
Meeting makers make it
Nobody ever found recovery as a result of an intellectual awakening
Stick with the winners
An addict alone is in bad company
Principles before personalities
Cultivate an attitude of gratitude
How does it work? It works just fine
To keep what you have, you have to give it away
People who don't go to meetings don't hear about what happens to people who don't go to meetings
Misery is optional
Recovery is a journey ...not a destination
The key to freedom is in the Steps
I was sick and tired of being sick and tired
Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less
Live life on life's terms
You can't think your way into a new way of living...you have to live your way into a new way of thinking
The newcomer is the most important person in any meeting
Learn to listen and listen to learn
If you sit in the barber's chair long enough, you'll eventually get a haircut
Recovery begins with the First Step
