Now is as good a time as any to stop saying yes to things you really want to say no to.

Show up in the world in a way that makes you proud.

I believe my Higher Power (HP) has my best interests and can help guide me through life...

You will experience moments when you feel like the world is against you, when nothing seems to work, when it feels like everything can go wrong has.

And so it is. We often find exactly what we believe we will.‍

Once I became aware of things that I once was oblivious to, I could not un-know.

They see you for who you are. Trust them, show them love, and honor these relationships.

By accepting responsibility for where you are right now, regardless of how you got here, you are better positioned to change the way your story plays out.

Watch your character, it becomes your destiny.

Expectation rarely leaves room for the wonder and magic of the unknown.

You can train yourself to think differently by acting in ways that align with the thoughts you'd prefer to have and catching yourself when you have thoughts that don't align.

"We admitted we were powerless over alcohol - that our lives had become unmanageable."

You are exactly where you should be.

Today, I will accept where I am in my relationships, even if that place is awkward and uncomfortable. If I am in the midst of endings, I will face and accept my grief. God, help me trust that the path I am on has been perfectly and lovingly planned for me. Help me believe that my relationships are teaching me important lessons. Help me accept and be grateful for middles, endings, and new beginnings.‍

Today, I will accept where I am and continue pushing forward. If I am in the midst of a learning experience, I will allow myself to contimue on with the faith that the day of mastery and reward will come. Help me, God, understand that despite my best efforts to live in peaceful serenity, there are times of mountain climbing. Help me stop creating chaos and crisis, and help me meet the challenges that will move me upward and forward.

Today, I will let last year's toys be what they were: last year's toys. I will remember them with fondness for the part they played in my life. Then, I will put them away and make room for the new.

Today, I will gently work through my memories of this holiday season. I will accept my feelings, even if I consider them different than what others are feeling this holiday. God, help me let go, heal from, and release the painful memories surrounding the holidays. Help me finish my business from the past, so I can create the holiday of my choice.

Today, I will relax and trust that the good I need will find me. Either through my leadings, or the leadings of others, all I want and need will come to me when the time is right.

Today, I will practice acceptance with myself and others for the way we change. If I have had to swing to the other extreme of a behavior, I will accept that as appropriate, for a time. But I will make my goal one of balanced tolerance and expectations of myself and others.

Today, I will strive for reasonable expectations about getting my needs met in relationships.

Today, I will refuse to accept shame from others or myself for feeling my feelings.

Today, I will nurture myself. I will also be open to the nurturing that I can give to others and receive from them.

Today, I will take care of myself emotionally. I will be open to, and accepting of, the emotional part of myself an other people. I will strive for balance by combining emotions with reason, but I will not allow intellect to push the emotional part of myself away.

Today, I will strive for balanced, clear thought in all areas of my life.

Today, I will ask God to show me what God wants me to do for this day, and then ask for help to do that. I will trust that is sufficient to take me into light and joy.

Today, I will empower the good in myself, others, and life. I'm willing to release, or let go of, negative thought patterns and replace them with positive ones. I will choose what I want to affirm, and I will make it good.‍

Today, I will treasure the gift of my mind. I will do my own thinking, make my own choices, and value my opinions. I will be open to what others think, but I will take responsibility for myself. I will ask for and trust that I am being guided by Divine Wisdom.Melody Beattie - December 10

Today, I will ask for help if I need it - from people and my Higher Power. I will not be a victim, helplessly waiting to be rescued. I will make my request for help specific, to the point, and I will leave room for the person to choose whether or not to help me. I will not be a martyr any longer by refusing to get the help I deserve in life - the help that makes life simpler. God, help me let go of my need to do everything alone. Help me use the vast Universe or resources available to me.

Today, I will respect the wants and needs of myself and others. I will tell myself, others, and my Higher Power what I want and need. I will listen to what they want and need too.

Today, I will accept my circumstances even if I lack direction and insight. I will remember to do things that make myself and others feel good during those times. I will trust that clarity will come of its own accord.
