Honesty in a full measure is being blatantly honest and half measure is leaving out certain facts. Well, therefore, still lying, right, therefore, right.
Picture this: you're on a journey to sobriety, but something feels off. Are you truly committed, or are you just going through the motions? In this thought-provoking episode of the Sober.Coffee Podcast, hosts Mike R and Glenn H tackle the critical question of what it means to be 'all-in' on your path to recovery. They candidly share their own experiences with half-hearted efforts and the dangers of complacency that can sneak up on anyone trying to stay sober.
Mike and Glenn kick things off by discussing the importance of honesty—not just with others, but with yourself. They explore how even small omissions or 'half-truths' can undermine your recovery journey. Drawing from the principles outlined in the Big Book of AA, they emphasize the need for full transparency and the courage to face uncomfortable truths. But it doesn't stop there.
The duo delves into the significance of staying connected with the sober community, whether through AA meetings, events, or one-on-one interactions with sponsors. They highlight how these connections provide a support system that helps you stay accountable and fully engaged in your recovery. Throughout the episode, Mike and Glenn sprinkle in personal anecdotes that illustrate the real-life impact of half measures versus full commitment.
They discuss the pitfalls of living in the past or worrying about the future, stressing the importance of staying present and mindful. Their message is clear: true recovery requires wholehearted effort and an unwavering commitment to the process. So, if you've ever questioned whether you're giving your all in your sobriety journey, this episode is a must-listen.
Mike and Glenn's heartfelt conversation will inspire you to take a hard look at your own efforts and encourage you to stay fully committed to your path of recovery.
