Please dear possibly imaginary being in the sky, do not let me get kicked early from work again today. I need more than two hours of income; I bought a car and now I need to pay for it 😋

Please dear my lord & saviour, keep me focused on the #RecoveryInc method, tools, & mindset. I have the knowledge from years of reading your bibles; help me implement these ideas & realities & life skills to be well & content & motivated.

The Recovery International Method is believed by many to be the original cognitive behavioral training (CBT) system, pioneered by Abraham Low, MD, in the 1930s. CBT is a system whereby people train themselves to identify and correct damaging thoughts and behaviors to change the way they would typically respond to events. By changing thoughts and behaviors, people take control and can live happy, healthy lives.

Recovery International

Ask yourself Why you are doing the things you do. What do you think your goal is, and where are your actions aiming, really?

Say to yourself, "Why am I doing this, and what do I hope to get out of it?" Is that likely?

Dr. Low talks about examining our actions and behaviours to verify our goals - if I say I want peace, but my action is yelling at others, it points to a goal of something else over enduring peace.

#RecoveryInternational #RecoveryInc #MentalHealth #RI #DoGoodToday

Dr. Low teaches us, we cannot control outer environment, or even all of what some people think of as inner environment. We can change our thoughts and control our impulses, and everything else is beyond our control. Feelings and sensations and unbidden spontaneous thoughts rise and fall and are outside our control. But, through self control, we can choose how we influence others, how we influence and possibly can change the things outside of our control. #RI #RecoveryInternational #mentalhealth

If my goal is domination, I cannot succeed. If my goal is cooperation, I cannot fail.

Finally made an #RI meeting today! Coincidentally, the chapter we read in Manage Your Fear Manage Your Anger made me want to force spam the meeting at a few online chat buddies after some online chat today.

It also reminds me so much of dude who wrote books to teach the world that societies fail when we don't have enough focus & effort on the group needs & how we can benefit society.

How Recovery International Helped Me Stay Sober - by Bob

"I joined Alcoholics Anonymous in 1984 and was on my path to wellness at long last, but it took several years of focus to stay on Sobriety Road. My major stumbling blocks were depression and anxiety, and my anger had turned to rage. I struggled, but I lived and breathed the 12-Steps. One day someone, seeing my challenge, suggested I visit Recovery International."

If you laugh at a thing and ridicule it you cannot possibly fear it. That is the reason why a sense of humor is such a strong antidote against fear.
(Mental Health Through Will Training, p. 362, Dr. Abraham Low)

I expected the game to be, what else can we set a too-old-for age limit for?

I was wrong.

Self appointed expectations lead to self induced disappointments and frustrations, as Dr. Abraham Low might say.

#RecoveryInc #RecoveryInternational

I'm going for it, anyway. I suggest a too-old age for creating online accounts. Like when you used to have to be 13 to sign up online? I want everyone over 69 to have to lie about their age to order pizza through a website.
