7,005 Days Quit

Repost:  Sayings, Slogans, and "Catch Phrases"

Good morning
Some really positive stuff found in here.  My mantras and sayings really helped me in my early days.  The one I continue to hold and forever will is 'I am one puff away from a pack a day'.  That will forever be true. 
Hope you find something in here that helps you out and motivates you to keep that awesome quit going.

The list grows with time.
 • First Things First •
 Live and Let Live 
• Let go and let God
 • Time takes time
 • One day at a time
 • Cultivate an attitude of gratitude 
• Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less • Live life on life's terms 
• You can't think your way into a new way of living...you have to live your way into a new way of thinking 
• GOD = Good Orderly Direction
 • HALT = don't get to Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired
 • Your worth should never depend on another persons opinion
 • HOW it works = Honesty, Open mindedness, and Willingness
 • SLIP = Sobriety Lost Its Priority
 • Don't pick up, ask for help, call your sponsor, and go to meetings 
• It's a simple program for complicated people
 • It works if you work it 
• Learn to listen and listen to learn
 • Many meetings, many chances; few meetings, few chances; no meetings, no chances 
• Meeting makers make it 
• People who don't go to meetings don't hear about what happens to people who don't go to meetings 
• To keep what you have, you have to give it away 
• How does it work? It works just fine 
• If you don't want to slip, stay away from slippery places
 • If you do what you always did, you'll get what you always got 
• If you sit in the barber's chair long enough, you'll eventually get a haircut
 • Most things can be preserved in alcohol; dignity, however, is not one of them 
• Progress, not perfection • think......think.......think • Keep it simple
 • This too shall pass • Stick with the winners 
• H O P E = Happy Our Program Exists • Recovery is a journey ...not a destination 
• To thine own self be true 
• Turn it over • Nothing is so bad, a drink won't make it worse 
• Willingness is the key 
• Keep the plug in the jug 
• Do it sober 
• Hugs not Drugs 
• Just for Today 
• Pass it on 
• Don't quit before the miracle happens 
• Time takes time • Use the 24-hour plan 
• When all else fails, follow directions 
• Change is a process, not an event 
• Call your sponsor before, not after, you take the first drink 
• I was sick and tired of being sick and tired
 • It's the first drink that gets you drunk 
• Take what you can use and leave the rest 
• Help is only a phone call away 
• One drink is too many and a thousand not enough 
• Keep coming back 
• Easy does it 
• Principles before personalities 
• Seven days without a meeting makes one weak 
• If it looks like a Duck and it Quacks like a Duck it's probably a Duck 
• One of the best parts of recovery is getting your feelings back. The worst part is getting your feelings back. 
• A GRATEFUL Alcoholic won't drink 
• Give time...time • Is your program powered by Will Power or Higher Power?
