Getting through the minutes

Life in Recovery

I don’t need to be day 890. I don’t need to be year 10, year 20, year 30. I don’t even need to be tomorrow. Right now, I need to be today. I need to make it through this hour. I’m here in this minute. A minute is easy. An hour is easy. I can do an hour. WE can do an hour. WE can do one minute of being clean.

This is exactly how you do it :clap: Learning to stay in the present made all the difference for me. All we have is right now, this second. Once it’s over, it’s past. And with no way to know the future, why even think about it? One day at a time. It works :muscle:

One moment at the time is the only thing to focus on. If you don’t pick up, you don’t use and you win. The future can wait.
