AA Thought for the Day

January 7, 2006

Efficiency

As we go through the day we pause,
when agitated or doubtful,
and ask for the right thought or action.
We constantly remind ourselves
we are no longer running the show,
humbly saying to ourselves many times each day
"Thy will be done."
We are then in much less danger of excitement,
fear, anger, worry, self-pity, or foolish decisions.
We become much more efficient. . . .
It works -- it really does.
