Thinking of others has never come easily to me... The program tells me that my thoughts must reach out to those around
Ever struggled with putting others first? Louie L. from Jacksonville, FL, knows the feeling all too well. In this episode of the Daily Reflection Podcast, Louie opens up about his journey towards selflessness, both within and outside the recovery community. Reflecting on the December 13th reading from the Daily Reflection book, he candidly shares how focusing on others has been a game-changer in his recovery process. Louie admits that thinking of others didn't come naturally to him.
He often found himself caught up in questions like, 'How do I feel today?' or 'Am I happy?' But through the A.A. program, he learned to shift his thoughts outward. Whether it's welcoming a newcomer or cheering up someone who's having a rough day, Louie discovered that reaching out to others brought him a sense of serenity and connection he had been missing. Prayer and meditation played crucial roles in this transformation.
These practices helped Louie step outside his own head and genuinely consider the needs of those around him. He emphasizes that the act of helping others should be done without expecting anything in return. Surprisingly, it's in this selfless giving that Louie found the most unexpected rewards. If you're looking for inspiration on how to incorporate more selflessness into your life, Louie's story offers valuable insights.
His experiences highlight the profound impact of small acts of kindness and the importance of community in the recovery journey. Tune in to hear Louie's heartfelt reflections and discover how thinking of others can lead to unforeseen blessings.
