AA Thought for the Day
November 14, 2006
Depression
During acute depression,
avoid trying to set your whole life in order all at once.
If you take on assignments so heavy
that you are sure to fail in them at the moment,
then you are allowing yourself to be tricked
by your unconscious.
Thus you will continue to make sure of your failure,
and when it comes you will have another alibi
for still more retreat into depression.
Thought to Ponder....
Obstacles are the things we see
when we take our eyes off of our goals.
