Success in recovery, success in life, success in relationships, means that I'm going to work on being better Today.
Feeling stuck in your recovery journey? Mark Mascolo’s latest episode of 'Powerless to Powerful' offers a practical roadmap with 10 essential tools to help you find lasting sobriety. Mark kicks things off by emphasizing the importance of having a clear purpose. He explains how identifying your purpose can shift your mindset from being a consumer to becoming a provider, laying a strong foundation for your recovery.
Next, he discusses the value of willingness—are you ready to go where you’ve never been before and do whatever it takes? Simplifying the process is also key. Mark breaks down the first step, highlighting what it says and what it doesn’t, helping you focus on what truly matters. Taking ownership is another crucial aspect. Mark talks about the significance of marking your clean date and taking personal responsibility for your success.
Relationships play a pivotal role in recovery, and Mark categorizes them into three types: neutral, negative, and positive. He stresses the importance of surrounding yourself with people who elevate you. Emotional control is another vital tool. Learn how not to be controlled by your emotions, as they often look backward rather than forward. Living in the present moment is also essential; Mark reminds us that the only time we can think and act is now.
Growth, both personal and spiritual, is another cornerstone of successful recovery. He likens it to training a muscle—it requires consistent effort. Building a supportive team is next on the list. Whether it's meetings, sponsors, or coaches, having a community can make all the difference. Finally, Mark talks about creating harmony and rhythm in your life through steps, meetings, prayer, sponsorship, and service. He even points out that tools #2-10 spell out STRENGTH.
This episode is packed with practical advice and personal anecdotes from Mark’s own journey, making it a must-listen for anyone seeking to transform their recovery experience.
