Full Commitment in Recovery: Roger B. on Achieving the Best Outcomes

Dishonesty was a principle that I built my whole life on before I got sober.
What does it mean to fully commit to your recovery journey? In this thought-provoking episode of The Gathering, Roger B. takes listeners on a deep dive into the crucial difference between striving for the best outcomes and settling for half-measures in spiritual recovery. With over four decades of personal experience, Roger unpacks the significance of honesty, surrender, and the pivotal role of the 12 steps in transforming one's mindset.
He brings to light the power of identifying with others in similar struggles and delves into the divine essence of the third step. Roger also stresses the importance of meticulous effort in recovery, drawing from his own trials and triumphs. He candidly discusses the peeling away of layers in personal growth, the defects in principles, and how manipulation and dishonesty play into addiction.
Pain, he asserts, is an inevitable part of life, but facing it head-on is essential for genuine recovery. Additionally, Roger highlights the often-overlooked chapter 'To Wives' in Alcoholics Anonymous, underscoring its value in understanding the broader impacts of addiction. By tuning in, you'll gain a richer understanding of the spiritual principles that underpin recovery and learn practical ways to apply these insights to your own life.
