Perfectionism has no place in recovery.
It takes time to absorb our program, and we do that during our down time,
not while we’re working. It makes no sense to cram, because
the program has only one criterion: improvement.
We have to take time to smell the roses.
Short version of the First Step:
Help! I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!
There’s no victory over good and bad in recovery. We don’t choose Dr Jekyll over Mr Hyde; they shake hands and we learn to manage better with all of who we are.

Most things are better understood when observed instead of judged. Judgement narrows our focus, and effectively shuts down the learning process.

Examining how to live a life amplified by purpose, intent, and virtue. Family, friendship, marriage, fatherhood, masculinity, fitness, self-defense, art, music, philosophy, theology, and politics.
