Good afternoon! My name is Lauren , and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict. As humans, we hate to be told things over and over and over again. But that's the only way we learn, by repetition. We learn things by practicing things. Some of us fell off of our bike 50 times before we learned how to ride it. Some people played soccer for 20 years to play in the Olympics. People practice things over and over and over again to get good...to get great at it. Once we repeat something so many times, we believe in ourselves. We become good at it, and we continue to work at it. This can go for many things in life, obviously for sports. But when you talk about sobriety, you don't get 'good' at it persay, it just gets easier. Yes, it's still one day at a time, but when it becomes routine, it becomes more natural. Just keep doing the next right thing. That's all I have for today! Have a great one!
