Enough days at a time of practicing recovery behaviors and piling up short term gains leads to long-term rewards.\r\nToday, I will be grateful for the immediate and long-term rewards of recovery. If I am new to recovery, I will have faith that I can achieve the long-term benefits. If I’ve been recovering for a while, I will pause to reflect, and be grateful for my overall progress.\r\n \r\nFinal Thoughts\r\n \r\nhttp:\/\/anonpress.org\/bb\/\r\nhttp:\/\/aa.org\/twelveandtwelve\/en_tableofcnt.cfm\r\n \r\nhttp:\/\/www.hazelden.org\/web\/public\/thought.view?catId=1901\r\n ","author_name":"Recovered Podcast","author_url":"http:\/\/recoveredcast.com","html":"
