  • JUNE 27 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "Put off"

    JUNE 27 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "Put off"
    Jun 27 2024
    Little by little, I'm getting over my tendency to procrastinate. I always used to put things off till tomorrow, and, of course, they never got done. Instead of "Do it now," my motto was "Tomorrow's another day." When I was in action, I had grandiose plans; when I came down from my high, I was too busy getting over my depression to start anything. I've learned in the Gamblers Anonymous Program that it's far better to make a mistake once in a while than to never do anything at all. Am I learning to "do it now"? Today I Pray … May God help me cure my habitual tardiness and "get me to the church on time." May I free myself of the self-imposed chaos of lifelong procrastination: library books overdue, appointments half missed, assignments turned in late, schedules unmet, meals half-cooked. May I be sure if I, as a compulsive gambler, led a disordered life, I, as a recovering compulsive gambler, need order. May God give me the serenity I need to restore order and organization to my daily living. Today I Will Remember … I will not be put off by my tendency to put off.

  • JUNE 26 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "Living is changing"

    JUNE 26 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "Living is changing"
    Jun 26 2024
    How many of us would presume to announce, "Well, I'm on my way to way licking the gambling habit. What more can I want, or do? I'm fine just the I am." Experience has taught us that the price of such smug complacency - or, more politely, self-satisfaction - is an inevitable backslide, punctuated sooner or later by a very rude awakening. We have to grow, or else we deteriorate. For us, the status quo can only be for today, never for tomorrow. Change we must; we can't stand still. Am I sometimes tempted to rest on my laurels? Today I Pray … May I look around me and see that all living things are either growing or deteriorating; nothing that is alive is static. Life flows on. May I be carried along on that life-flow, unafraid of change, disengaging myself from the snags along the way that hold me back and interrupt my progress. Today I Will Remember … Living is changing.

  • JUNE 25 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "From bondage to abundance"

    JUNE 25 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY "From bondage to abundance"
    Jun 25 2024
    If ever I come to the complacent conclusion that I don't need the Gamblers Anonymous Program any longer, let me quickly remind myself that it can do far more than carry me through the anguish of living in the bondage of addiction. Let me further remind myself that I can make even greater strides in fulfilling myself, for the Program and the Twelve Steps is a philosophy — a way of life. Will I ever outgrow my need for the GA Program? Today I Pray … May my Higher Power lead me through the Twelve Steps, not just once, but again and again, until they become the guiding principles of my existence. This is no quickie seminar on improving the quality of my life; this is my life, restored to me through Divine Power and the friendship of my fellow gamblers, who, like me, are recovering in the best known way. Today I Will Remember … Step by Step, from bondage to abundant life. A Day at a Time ⁠⁠⁠https://amzn.to/3EOjuiH⁠⁠⁠ G.A.
