What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.
If you don’t know where you want to go, you’ll never get there. This is true in all aspects of life, including addiction recovery. Many successful people choose to treat all aspects of their lives like a journey, where they want to reach the finish line and they’ve got a clear plan for getting there. Sometimes they describe this as finding their ‘true north’ and using that as their guide. They program their true north destination into their internal GPS, and that keeps them on a productive path. And true north is about more than getting sober. Sure, getting sober is a great goal, but the true north destination to program into your internal GPS should be something like ‘living a healthier and happier life.’ That is a much larger and more meaningful goal than simple sobriety.
Task for Today
Find and define your true north. Program that into your internal GPS.
