Good morning! My name is Lauren, and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict. This quote makes sense in the fact that these 24 hours help my ultimate plans for the next month or years fall into place. Yes, I need to have goals, but me not thinking too far into the future gets me to reach my goals. So I just worry about today. Well, not worry, but focus on. Yes I have a calendar, and plan out dates, appointments, vacations, birthday parties, and such. I have to because I am an adult. But when it comes to reaching these things, I just get through one day at a time. Today, all I am thinking about it today. Now I know I have a big day tomorrow with some appointments for my daughter, but that isn't today, so I will put it out of my head for now. (Even thought the hospital has called me three times today to verify information.) I will just get my work done, go home, make dinner, spend time with my family, and enjoy my day, clean and sober. That's all I have for today. Have a great one! Don't forget to sign up for a free book. :)

Staying focused is one of the hardest things to do, especially when you are easily distracted like myself. The way for me to stay focused is to never use any gadgets when I am doing something important. This is most effective when I am studying because I am always tempted to go on social media. What I do instead is I turn off my phone. So that no matter what happens, I will not be tempted to check my messages.
