July 24 Self-will - Transitions Daily Alcohol Recovery Readings Podcast

Ever thought about how self-will might be impacting your sobriety journey? In this episode of the Transitions Daily Alcoholics Anonymous Recovery Readings Podcast, Sarah M. from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, dives into the theme of self-will and its often detrimental effects. Through a series of poignant quotes from AA literature like 'A.A. Thought for the Day', 'Daily Reflections', and 'As Bill Sees It', Sarah brings to light the challenges of self-centeredness and the importance of helping others.

One striking quote reflects, 'Self-centeredness was my problem all my life. People had been doing things for me and I not only expected it, but I was ungrateful and resentful. They didn't do more. Why should I help others when they were supposed to help me?' This thought-provoking reflection underscores the importance of shifting focus from ourselves to others, a crucial step in the recovery process.

The episode also touches on themes like business honesty and recognizing God's presence in our lives. It wraps up with a calming meditation and a prayer, offering listeners a moment of peace and reflection. This episode is a treasure trove of inspiration and practical wisdom for anyone striving to live a sober life.
