    YOU CAN DO ANYTHING...

    I had posted this on the General Discussion board, it was suggested I post it on here as well...

    -----------------------------------------------------------


    Occasionlly on here, people starting out on this journey either to moderation, or, abstinence, are full of questions...

    How do I start?? What do I do???? What works for you??? Do I take this, or do I take that??

    Well, I came across this a while ago, hope it helps someone...


    YOU CAN DO ANYTHING
    YOU BELIEVE YOU CAN?
    Just start somewhere., Resolve to do something..
    You might even write out what you want to
    Accomplish.. Then explore what you need to do to
    Reach your goal, and start doing it, step by step..
    It?s the same as if you were planning a trip: you
    Get a map, make your preparations, and then start
    Travelling the right road..

    Don?t get ? bound up ? in any problems that stand
    In your way.. Do something every day to resolve
    Them.. Trust your instincts.. Do one thing at a time..

    Remember? if you sow seeds of fear, doubt, panic,
    And procrastination, it will most likely work against
    You.. If you keep doing the same things you?re
    Doing now, you will keep ending up in similar
    Places to where you are now..

    Once you start making progress towards your goal,
    You will be magically propelled towards eventual
    Reward.. Just keep listening and taking direction
    From inside you.. Be patient; your dreams will not
    Come true overnight.. But start now, and go with
    Love and courage and confidence.. Don?t be afraid..
    You can do anything you believe you can.. And
    Don?t forget to keep an open mind and heart to
    Check yourself along the way?

    You can do it! Go for it, and good luck?


    I wish you well,
    Love, Louise xxx

          IrishLady,

          I love the post.

          I was encouraged by a few people on this site to start the cd's, and the supplements, and I'm so glad I did.

          The days start out a little rough, but that happens anyway with a lot of people. And they end so beautifully! I had such a wonderful time with my students today.

          I have found two new and far more sober bands to play music with. Since this has become a priority, this is huge for me. I am letting go of the drinking band. The far more sober bands treat me much better. They like me for who I am.

          I feel much more confident over the last few days. I have surprised myself a little by facing challenges, delivering, and feeling good about the results. There are angry moments, too, as well as tearful ones. But they go away if I express them by myself for five to ten minutes. I usually have no choice but to feel better quickly after that, and I have been having moments of incredible joy like I have not known before. I have become a better teacher and musician.

          Thank You

            thank you - and as Truth said - I will definitely re-read - you have it and you give it so thank you.
            Though no one can go back and make a brand-new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand-new ending
