" I am one person who is very negative and critical about myself and very difficult at the same time. It has caused me to be inactive. And now, every moment and every day, I practice to be active. At times, it's very frustrating but I am up to it. I keep trying, no matter how difficult because I am faced with unfounded fears. Every moment I try to face these fears and am glad to be alive at the end of each fear. Yes, I do believe that there is a lot of power in the words, "I can", and it takes a lot of effort from me to say it. I am walking very tiny steps; I am practicing!" (Author Unknown)

I'm very familiar with this one. What are your thoughts on this?

Best wishes in recovery,

Rain

Well, the program works to help me overcome these fears...if I remember that it's probably fear underneath my discomfort!  LOL!

Funny, I've been doing a lot of work on the fears that keep me frozen, unable to move forward.  Thanks for this thought, Rain -- guess I needed it.

I wish you joy in your journey!



One Day At A Time, With Love,

Eileen
