Setting Intentions: Lessons from Hammock Reading 6

If we seek to understand people, intentions that are emphatically stated won’t provide the same clues as one’s deeds. Do they deliver in marriage what they promised in courtship?
What if the key to recovery lies in your intentions? In this episode of Hammock Readings, titled 'Cheeseburger in Paradise', the Avenues recovery community dives into the significance of setting clear intentions on the path to sobriety. Opening with a thought-provoking quote from Jimmy Buffett, an AA member, the episode challenges listeners to think about how their actions speak louder than words.
It's a call to examine the true motives behind our behaviors and to strive for honesty and accountability in recovery. The hosts highlight that intentions can often be muddled by fear, avoidance, and denial, making it crucial to stay grounded and truthful. The episode also underscores the value of community support, reminding us that recovery is not a journey we take alone but one we share with others who understand our struggles.
By tuning in, you're invited to reflect on your own intentions and to embrace the strength found in communal support. Whether you're new to recovery or have been on this path for a while, this episode offers a blend of inspiration and practical advice to help you stay committed to your goals.
