I think

everything is urgent and important and deciphering what to do first and what the focus should be

is an art in itself.

You know, I would just think, oh my my gosh I don't know what to do I don't know how to prioritize my list but by stepping out and stepping back and pausing you kind of think okay first things first what do I need to do and you can get

focused and get it done be united

welcome to episode 306 of the Recovery Show. This episode is brought to you by Janice, Yasmin,

and DeSia. They use the donation button on our website. Thank you, Janice, Yasme, Carmen, and DeSaya for your generous contributions.

This episode is for you.

We are friends of family members of alcoholics and addicts who have found a path to serenity and happiness.

We who live or have lived with a seemingly hopeless problem of addiction understand as perhaps few others

can.

So much depends on our own attitudes and we believe that changed attitudes can aid recovery.

Before we begin, we would like to state that in this show we represent ourselves rather than any

12-step program. During this show we will share our own experiences. The opinions expressed here are strictly those of the person who gave them.

Take what you like and leave the rest. We hope that you will find something in our sharing that speaks to your life.

My name is Spencer and I'm your host today.

Joining me is Karen and welcome back to the Recovery Show, Karen.

Thank you Spencer.

Congrats on over 300 inspiring episodes.

Oh, well, thank you.

As is our practice, we want to open with a reading

that I asked you to choose, and why don't you tell us about it?
