Staying Alert: Vigilance in the Journey to Sobriety with Dennis B.
Vigilance will always be the price of survival.
Ever feel like staying sober is an uphill battle? Dennis B. understands, and in this episode of the Transitions Daily Alcoholics Anonymous Recovery Readings Podcast, he brings you a collection of daily quotes that emphasize the crucial role of vigilance in maintaining sobriety. Drawing from trusted sources like 'Twenty-Fours A Hours A Day', 'A.A. Thought for the Day', and 'Daily Reflections', Dennis shares wisdom that underscores the need for constant awareness and humility in your recovery journey.
The episode dives into the pitfalls of becoming too self-assured, or what Bill W. refers to as 'Big Shotism'. This kind of thinking can lead to complacency and, ultimately, relapse. Instead, Dennis highlights the importance of staying humble and recognizing that any success in sobriety is a collective effort, often attributed more to a higher power than to ourselves.
You'll also hear about the freedom that comes from breaking free from 'King Alcohol', the importance of mending relationships, and how service to others can be a cornerstone of your recovery. The episode wraps up with a powerful prayer, urging listeners to let a higher power guide them as they work towards a better life. Whether you're just beginning your sobriety journey or need daily motivation to stay on track, this episode offers valuable insights and support.
And don't forget, there's a secret Facebook group where you can join discussions and receive daily readings. Remember, staying vigilant is key to surviving and thriving in your sobriety.
