Your worth should never depend on another persons
opinion
HOW it works = Honesty, Open mindedness, and
Willingness
SLIP = Sobriety Lost Its Priority
Don't pick up, ask for help, call your Sponsor, and
go to meetings
It's a simple program for complicated people
Keep coming back, it works if you work it
Learn to listen and listen to learn
Many meetings, many chances; few meetings, few
chances; no meetings, no chances
Meeting makers make it

happens to people who don't go to meetings
To keep what you have, you have to give it away
How does it work? It works just fine

always got

however, is not one of them

Pass it on
Don't quit before the miracle happens
Time takes time
Use the 24-hour plan

first drink
I was sick and tired of being sick and tired
It's the first drink that gets you drunk

One drink is too many and a thousand not enough
Keep coming back
Easy does it
Stick with the winners - Win with the stickers
Serenity is not freedom from the storm but peace amid
the storm
Principles before personalities
Seven days without a meeting makes one weak
Slogans are wisdom written in shorthand
If it looks like a Duck and it Quacks
like a Duck it's
probably a Duck
One
of the best parts of recovery is getting your feelings back. The
worst part is getting your feelings back.

Give time...time
1. FEAR Face Everything And Recover

Fake it until
you make it
