The Twelve Steps have helped me identify character defects and I now wish to create something better. What do I admire in others? The Twelve Steps emphasise honesty, courage, responsibility, unselfishness, integrity and willingness to change. Few people have all these qualities at full strength, but some display perhaps a few of these to great effect. We should study them as role models and learn from them because the example of others is a powerful force for change in ourselves. Am I working on spiritual growth through learning from the example of others?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-a748426a7669a8dfaa4cfbbcb54611bc\"><strong><br>\u2018Courage to change\u2019 is a part of the wording of the Serenity Prayer. If I am going to move from good intention to action, I must start doing things to help my recovery. Do I have a sponsor and a home group? Apart from the support and guidance that they give me, what can I learn from their attitudes and example? A child learns from watching how its parents behave more than from what they say. I will help myself to change by understanding the process of how it happens. I ask for the humility to learn from others.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>View VIDEO on Facebook&nbsp;&nbsp;https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=A100094027278120 Follow on TikTok Videos at&nbsp;Tiktok.com\/@recoverydays Remember Mindfulness \u2013 enjoy the moment Change If I am to continue to change, as I hope I will do, I need an idea of what I would like to become. &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/?p=1785\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":689,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14,31,20,1],"tags":[11,15,28,27,33,32],"class_list":["post-1785","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-addiction-recovery-2","category-daily-inspiration","category-living-skills","category-uncategorized","tag-addiction-recovery","tag-addiction-treatment","tag-castle-craig","tag-connection","tag-fellowship","tag-recovery-journey"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1785","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1785"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1785\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1786,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1785\/revisions\/1786"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/689"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1785"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1785"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recoverydays.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1785"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
