Finding Joy in Setting Goals: A Recovery Road Guide

There is magic in setting and writing down goals. We become aware of and do the things we need to do to achieve and accomplish.
Imagine having a roadmap to guide you through the twists and turns of recovery. That's what this episode of 'Recovery Road' offers. With insights from Melody Beattie, author of 'Codependent No More', you'll learn how setting goals can transform your journey to sobriety. Forget waiting for New Year's resolutions; every day is a new opportunity to set meaningful, fun, and even whimsical goals.
Whether it's buying a new car or planning a trip to South America, writing down your goals can bring clarity and motivation. Melody Beattie reminds us that there's a certain magic in goal-setting. When you jot down your aspirations, you become more intentional about the steps needed to achieve them. This episode encourages you to think about what you want to accomplish this week, this month, or even in the next five years.
But it's not just about listing goals; it's about trusting the process and letting go of control. You might not always know how or when your goals will be achieved, but having them written down keeps you focused and organized. Plus, it helps reduce worry and keeps you connected with your higher power. Feeling stuck in your recovery? This episode offers a practical and inspiring way to reignite your passion for living your best life.
By setting goals, you give yourself something to look forward to and a reason to keep moving forward. Tune in to discover how goal-setting can be a powerful tool in your recovery journey.
